Southwire 97068808 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can I use this 16/3 SJTW replacement cord outdoors or in a wet location?
No. Although SJTW jacket material is the weather-resistant type, this 6-foot Southwire cord is specified for indoor use and is not rated for wet locations or direct burial. For an outdoor run, use a cord specifically listed for outdoor and wet location service.
2) Does this Southwire replacement cord have a grounded three-prong plug?
Yes, it is a grounded cord with a three-conductor 16/3 build and a NEMA 5-15P plug, the standard straight-blade 15 amp 125 volt three-prong configuration. It plugs into any ordinary 5-15R receptacle and carries an equipment ground back to the tool or appliance.
3) Is this a pigtail replacement cord or a finished extension cord with a receptacle end?
It is a replacement cord set: one molded male plug and bare wire at the other end for wiring into equipment. There are no outlets on it, so it will not serve as an extension cord. Use it to re-cord a tool, appliance, or motor after the original cord is damaged.
4) What temperature range can this PVC jacketed cord handle in an unheated space?
Rated from -40 to 140 F (-40 to 60 C), so it stays serviceable in an unheated garage, shop, or mechanical room. The jacket and insulation are PVC. Note the indoor-only rating still applies regardless of temperature capability.
5) How long is the Southwire 97068808 cord, and is 6 feet enough for a bench tool?
The cord is 6 feet long. That is a typical factory cord length for bench grinders, drill presses, small appliances, and similar equipment that sits near its receptacle. If the machine is more than a few feet from the outlet, choose a longer replacement cord rather than adding an extension.
6) Is this cord flame retardant or shielded?
No on both counts. The 16/3 SJTW cord is neither flame retardant rated nor shielded, so it is not the choice where a flame retardant cord is specified or where you need shielding against electrical noise on a sensitive circuit.
7) What color is the Southwire 97068808 cord and plug?
Both the cord jacket and the molded plug are black, which keeps it inconspicuous on black-cased tools and in finished spaces where a bright orange cord would stand out.
