This 18 AWG, 2-conductor portable cord is the industry standard for light-duty electrical equipment that requires flexibility and durability. It is most commonly used for portable tools, small appliances, decorative lighting, and stage equipment. Because it is rated for hard service, it is also frequently found in industrial control systems and as a power lead for small motors and hospital equipment where the cord must withstand frequent bending and movement.
The letters in SJOOW represent specific engineering standards that define the cord’s capabilities:
18/2 SJOOW Cord is rated for 10 Amps per conductor. This rating is based on an ambient temperature of 30°C (86°F) per NEC standards for 2-conductor assemblies.
Unlike the solid copper found in household wall wiring (NM-B), 18/2 SJOOW utilizes highly stranded bare copper.
18/2 SJOOW is built to survive harsh environments that would destroy standard indoor extension cords:
This cord contains two insulated conductors, following the standard North American color code for 120V power:
Standard extension cords (often made with PVC or SJT jackets) stiffen in the cold and melt when exposed to oils or heat. SJOOW uses rubber-based materials that maintain their flexibility and chemical resistance, making them the only choice for professional/industrial use.
Yes. The "W" rating indicates the cord is water and weather-resistant, meaning it is designed to hold up against rain, sunlight, and outdoor temperature fluctuations.
