FAQ
What devices is the Tripp Lite P012-006 power cord compatible with?
The P012-006 is compatible with notebook computers and notebook power adapters that feature an IEC-320-C8 receptacle. This includes most standard laptop power supplies that accept a C7 connector. It is not designed for devices with different connector types or higher power requirements beyond its 10A rating.
What is the length of this power cord and why does it matter?
This cord measures 6 feet (1.83 meters) from end to end. This length provides practical reach from wall outlets to desk positions, allowing flexible laptop placement without excessive cable slack. It balances extension needs with portability, making it suitable for both stationary use and travel where shorter cords might limit positioning options.
What do the NEMA 1-15P and IEC-320-C7 connector designations mean?
NEMA 1-15P refers to a standard North American two-prong non-polarized plug that fits typical wall outlets. IEC-320-C7 is an international standard two-pin connector that interfaces with notebook power supplies. Both are non-polarized, meaning they can be inserted in either orientation, simplifying connection in various environments.
What warranty coverage does Tripp Lite provide for this power cord?
Tripp Lite backs the P012-006 with a lifetime limited warranty. This coverage applies to defects in materials and workmanship for the product's usable life, providing long-term assurance of quality. Warranty details are available through Tripp Lite's support channels, and the cord's durable construction is designed to minimize failure over extended use.
Can this cord handle the power requirements of modern laptops?
Yes, with its 10A current rating and 18AWG wiring, the P012-006 supports typical laptop power demands. Most notebook power adapters draw significantly less than 10A, so this cord provides sufficient capacity margin. It is suitable for standard laptop charging and operation, though devices with unusual power requirements should verify compatibility.
What makes this power cord suitable as an OEM replacement?
The P012-006 matches the connector standards and electrical specifications of many original equipment manufacturer cords, providing identical functionality without brand restrictions. Its lifetime warranty often exceeds OEM coverage, and its standardized design ensures compatibility across multiple laptop models, making it a versatile replacement solution.
