Straight NEMA 5-15P to Open End Replacement Power Cable
Open End Wiring Flexibility: The open-end side can be prepared as stripped conductors or bare wire leads, allowing direct wiring into terminal blocks, switches, power modules, appliances, or internal AC input points.
Grounded 3-Conductor Structure: Built for line, neutral, and ground routing when manufactured with the correct conductor layout, supporting equipment designs that require protective earth continuity.
Molded Plug with Strain Relief: The straight NEMA plug can be produced with molded strain relief to help reduce bending stress at the cable exit during routing, installation, coiling, transport, and service work.
OEM Replacement Configuration: Cord length, wire gauge, jacket type, stripped length, conductor color, plug molding, cable printing, packaging, and certification route can be customized according to buyer drawings and target market requirements.
- Product Description
Straight NEMA 5-15P to Open End Replacement Power Cable for Appliance and OEM Wiring
The Straight NEMA 5-15P to Open End Replacement Power Cable is designed for repair teams, OEM equipment builders, and electrical assembly buyers who need a standard North American grounded plug with an open wiring end. The straight NEMA 5-15P plug connects to compatible 125V AC receptacles, while the open end can be prepared for direct connection to terminal blocks, switches, relays, power modules, or appliance input wiring. Practical. Flexible. Built for replacement and production wiring where the equipment side must follow the final drawing.
Why Choose Our Straight NEMA 5-15P Open End Power Cable?
This cable is built for projects where the wall-side plug is standard but the equipment-side termination must remain configurable. The important details are conductor structure, stripped length, wire color assignment, and cable jacket selection.
Straight NEMA 5-15P Plug Provides Standard Grounded US Power Input
The input side uses a straight NEMA 5-15P male plug, a common grounded plug type for North American 125V AC applications. This makes the replacement cable easy to match with compatible US outlets and service environments.
For repair kits and OEM assemblies, the benefit is straightforward: the wall-side interface is already defined, while the open end can be adapted to the internal wiring layout.
Open End Conductors Support Direct Equipment Wiring
The output side is supplied as an open end, with stripped leads or bare wire preparation available according to drawing. Installers can connect the conductors to terminal blocks, wire nuts, switches, relays, appliance input terminals, or custom power modules.
That flexibility reduces connector mismatch. Instead of forcing a molded receptacle into an internal wiring design, the cable can be prepared to match the actual equipment terminal system.
Grounded 3-Conductor Structure Supports Safety Planning
The cable can be built with line, neutral, and ground conductors for compatible grounded equipment. Ground continuity must be verified through the final wiring diagram, conductor assignment, and production test requirement.
For metal housings, appliances, and industrial equipment, the ground conductor is not optional if the design requires protective earth. Confirm the wiring map before bulk production.
Molded Plug Strain Relief Helps Reduce Cable-End Stress
The straight NEMA 5-15P plug can be manufactured with molded strain relief at the cable exit. This helps distribute bending force across the cable jacket and reduce concentrated stress where the cord leaves the plug body.
This matters in replacement and repair applications, where the cable may be bent, coiled, pulled, or repositioned repeatedly during use and servicing.

Buyer's Insight: For open end replacement cables, the biggest mistake is ordering by plug type only. The open end must match the equipment wiring method. Confirm outer jacket strip length, individual conductor strip length, exposed copper length, conductor color, and ground assignment before quotation; otherwise the cable may still require manual rework during installation.
Professional Applications You Can Trust
For appliance replacement, technicians need a cord that matches the wall outlet while leaving the equipment side ready for direct internal connection. This straight NEMA 5-15P open end cable provides that structure for compatible grounded appliances and repair projects.
For OEM equipment wiring, production teams often require a repeatable cable format across multiple units. Defining plug style, jacket type, strip length, and conductor colors helps operators connect the cord consistently to terminal blocks or power modules.
For control panels, lighting fixtures, and test equipment, the open end format allows routing through internal paths before termination. Custom lead lengths help prevent excess cable loops and reduce tension around terminal locations.
Advanced Safety Features
The NEMA 5-15P plug supports grounded power input when used with a proper three-conductor cable structure. The ground conductor must be connected to the correct equipment ground point according to the approved wiring diagram.
The open wire end must be installed by qualified personnel. Exposed conductors should be terminated, insulated, and enclosed according to the final equipment design and applicable electrical requirements.
Wire gauge and jacket selection should match current load, cable length, flexibility requirement, and certification route. For higher-current equipment, confirm whether 16AWG or 14AWG is required before production approval.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this straight NEMA 5-15P open end cable grounded?
A: It can be manufactured as a grounded replacement cable when built with line, neutral, and ground conductors. Ground continuity and conductor assignment should be confirmed in the final wiring diagram.
Q: What is the difference between open end, stripped end, and bare wire?
A: These terms are often used similarly, but production should define the exact preparation: outer jacket strip length, individual conductor strip length, exposed copper length, lead length, and whether tinning or terminals are required.
Q: Can the wire colors and strip lengths be customized?
A: Yes. Conductor color, lead length, outer jacket stripping, individual conductor stripping, exposed copper length, and optional tinning can be customized according to your assembly drawing.
Q: What information is needed for a quotation?
A: Please provide cord length, wire gauge, jacket type, outer jacket strip length, conductor strip length, exposed copper length, conductor color assignment, target certification, order quantity, packaging requirement, and any cable printing or molded logo requirement.
