1)Are you a manufacturer?Yes, our company is a professional wires and cables manufacturer with 17 years of experience.
2) Do you accept OEM and ODM?We accept OEM order for our customers, and we also have a strong research development team to design specialized wires and cables for ODM.
3)Are these products quality assured ? Most of cables are certificated. Also, we have strict QC under ISO9001-2015 quality management system, all products are 100% tested before delivery. Quality is assured.
4)Is the product UL certificated? Yes, the product is UL certificated with UL62 # E257925.
5)What gauge is a lamp cord?The gauge of a conducting wire is a measure of its cross-sectional area, and lower gauge numbers signify larger-diameter wires. This is because the original method of measuring wire diameter was to pull wires through a presized hole, and the thicker the wire, the fewer strands could be bundled together to fit. The wires that power the receptacles and light fixtures in a typical house are either 12- or thinner 14-gauge, and those in lamp cords are even thinner 18-gauge ones. Unlike typical cables in a home's electrical system, lamp cords usually contain stranded wire, which is wire made of several thin filaments bundled together.
6)What is the requirements for a Lamp Cord?The 18-gauge wire inside a lamp cord is rated for a maximum current draw of about 5 amps. That's more than enough for a typical 120-volt lightbulb -- or even several of them. The power that a load consumes equals the amount of current flowing to the load multiplied by the voltage of the electricity supply. A 60-watt bulb that runs on 120-volt electricity therefore only draws a 1/2 amp of current. If the same bulb runs on 12-volt power, however, you should upgrade the cord to 16- or even 14-gauge to avoid voltage drops and dim lights.
7)How to buy a Lamp Cord?When you go to the electrical supply outlet for your replacement cord, you'll have the choice of cutting a custom length from a roll and attaching your own plug or buying a precut cord with the plug already attached. You may find cords with polarized plugs that have different-sized prongs. While there is no harm in using polarized plugs and cords, not every lamp requires them. Moreover, some outdoor lamp fixtures may have a ground terminal. If so, you need a three-prong plug and a cord that includes two conducting wires and a ground wire.
