Works perfectly! Leviton 5266-CA 15 Amp 125 Volt Right Angle Plug

This is a good priced product with a good design and great features. I bought this to build some heavy duty power strips for my home construction/renovation project. The STD 50 ft "110-120" vacuum cords found at hardware stores are not rated for the amperage of a table saw or even a good circular saw. I already had a #10 3 strand stranded copper cable and simply fitted a 2 port 20A switch box to one end of my cable and added this connector to the other to get a >15A 120V AC cord , which provides enough current to power the supply. saws. The plug's blades were the same caliber and size as the 20 amp outlets. I first tried using a straight plug on the power end, but the weight of the cord pulled on the plug too hard, causing it to fall out of the outlet. When I switched to this angled fork, my problems were solved. This connector comes with very good hardware and a well insulated finish. The ends of the wires are simply inserted into the connection terminals and firmly fixed. The body bolts tighten well, but I'm concerned that the body of the fork itself will eventually crack from stress. Just take a look…
