An extension cord must have adequate wire
size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for
safety. The smaller the gauge number of the
wire, he greater the capacity of the cable,
that is 16 gauge has more capacity than 18

overheating. When using more than one
extension to make up the total length, be sure
each individual extension contains at least
the minimum wire size. The following table
shows the correct size to use depending on
cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in
doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller
the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
