One Cord To Rule Them All

I'm seeking advice for a power cord to go from the wall outlet to my PSA P10 power regenerator. It needs to be 1.5M / 5 ft. and have the ability to pass 600 watts for many hours per day. My current PC is a Pangea AC-9, and my budget is about $200 to $300. The candidates I have so far are: Pangea AC-9 SE Mk ll, Audio Envy Ocean 3, or a PS Audio AC10 (used for about $300). Any thoughts? ... Thanks

You are asking for 5 amps continuous from the mains.  That is really nothing...

Any cheap 14/12 AWG Romex wire will do it with flying colors.

Do not fall for the typical ridiculous power cord claims which charge equally ridiculous prices.

@clearthinker,

You seem to have some sense.  Do not try and argue with the $1000/power cable crowd.  You will never win.

I just use 20 cents/ft  Romex wire and it works perfect :-)
