Extension Cords/Cables
Extension cables are commonly used with our wood burners. Ideally though, you would not
want to use any. However, if you must, make sure it is:
1) As short as possible.
2) At least 16 GA (wire gauge)
3) Has three conductors (see image below)
On a technical side, the pyrography tool itself will draw just under 1 ampere in normal operation
mode and has an internal protection against short circuit. In the unlikely event it fails, the
extension cord needs to be able to handle more than 1 ampere. We strongly advise that you get
one with a capacity of at least 10 amperes.
Ampere rating of the extension cord changes with the length of the run, so two 10 amps cords
used together will have less than 10 amps capability.
