1. Grounded tools require a three wire extension cord.
Double Insulated tools can use either
a two or three wire extension cord.
2. As the distance from the supply outlet increases,
you must use a heavier gauge extension cord.
Using extension cords with inadequately sized wire
causes a serious drop in voltage, resulting in loss of
power and possible tool damage. ]?**%A,+7*%@1^
3. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the
greater the capacity of the cord. For example,
a 14 gauge cord can carry a higher current
than a 16 gauge cord. ]?**%A,+7*%@1^
4. When using more than one extension cord
to make up the total length, make sure
each cord contains at least the minimum
wire size required. ]?**%A,+7*%@1^
5. If you are using one extension cord for more
than one tool, add the nameplate%amperes
and use the sum to determine the required
minimum cord size. ]?**%A,+7*%@1^
6. If you are using an extension cord outdoors, make
sure it is marked with the suffix “W-A” (“W” in
Canada) to indicate it is acceptable for outdoor use.
7. Make sure the extension cord is properly wired
and in good electrical condition. Always replace
a damaged extension cord or have it repaired
by a qualified electrician before using it.
8. Protect the extension cords from sharp objects,
excessive heat, and damp or wet areas.
