Light Duty Extension Cords
Designed for indoor applications, these cords are often used to power appliances. The industry designation is SPT, so they have a flat cord shape.
Cords with a 90° elbow plug fit flush against a wall outlet for use behind machinery or in areas where space is tight.

Power Cords
Connect equipment and devices to a power supply.
SJEOW cords have an oil- and water-resistant insulation. The insulation on STW and SJTW cords resists water. Use SJT cords in dry or damp locations.

Light Duty Power Cords
SPT cords have a flat cord shape so they fit in tight spaces. The numbers 1, 2, and 3 indicate the relative thickness of the insulation.

Continuous-Flex Ethernet Cords
Often used in automated applications such as robotics, these cords withstand continuous motion without degrading data transmission. The shielding blocks signal interference from nearby equipment and devices. They send data between computers, printers, servers, and switches. For faster data transmission speeds, choose a cord with a higher industry designation category. They’re backward compatible, so they work in networks that meet the same or a lower category. All stand up to some abrasion.
Cords with polyurethane rubber insulation resist abrasion better and bend further than cords with PVC plastic insulation. You can use them indoors or outdoors, though you shouldn’t use them in harsh settings. They’re halogen free.
