About NEMA 6-20P to IEC60320 C15 Power Cords
NEMA 6-20P to IEC 60320 C15 Power Cords are rated up to 250VAC and 15A. We stock several STANDARD lengths. Standard stock color is black. Standard stock gauge is 14AWG. This is a high temperature application cord as it is using C15 connector. The C15 is rated up to 120°C, unlike the 70°C rating of the C13. If you don't require this extra feature you should look into our 6-20P to C13 Series.

On 1 of the cords here
The IEC 320 C15 Power cable is used to power electrical devices that emit so much heat (intentionally or unintentionally) that they require a power connection that can withstand more than the 70 °C (158 °F) temperature rating of the standard C13. In combination with the C14 plug type, the use cases of this high-temperature cable are almost exclusively data center environments. This cable would most likely be found supplying a High-Powered Switch power from a rack-mounted PDU power supply source. If your equipment has a IEC320 C16 Inlet it should only be mated with the matching C15-Power Connector.
