Grounded tools require a three wireGrounded
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
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
When using more than one extension cord
to make up the total length, make sure
each cord contains at least the minimum
If you are using one extension cord for more
than one tool, add the nameplate
and use the sum to determine the required
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.
