Overview

The Woodhead Safeway® Adapter (SKU: 1705) is a NEMA 5-15 to NEMA L5-15 power adapter rated for 15A/125V AC, designed for reliable industrial and commercial power connections. This adapter features a female NEMA 5-15 receptacle and a male NEMA L5-15 plug, enabling compatibility between standard grounded and locking blade configurations. Constructed with NEo-TEX® Paracril OZO rubber housing, it resists abrasion, chemicals, and temperature extremes from -40°C to 75°C, ensuring long-term durability in harsh environments. The floating blade design provides self-alignment for secure mechanical and electrical connections, minimizing wear and heat generation. With a 2-pole + ground (2P+G) configuration and nickel-plated brass contacts, it meets UL and CSA safety standards (File No. E10176, LR6837). Ideal for temporary power setups, construction sites, manufacturing facilities, and data centers where stable 125V power delivery is critical. Installation requires no specialized tools—simply plug into compatible receptacles and equipment.
