Grounded tools require a three wireGrounded

cord.

Double Insulated

tools can use either

Double Insulated tools can use either Double Insulated

a two or three wire extension cord.

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.

(See

Table

A.)

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.

(See

Table

A.)

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.

(See

Table

A.)

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.

(See

Table

A.)

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.

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.

Protect the extension cords from sharp objects,

excessive heat, and damp or wet areas.
