VOLTAGE DROP IN ELECTRIC EXTENSION CORDS

When a long electric extension cord is used to connect an appliance or tool to the generator, a certain amount of voltage drop or loss occurs in the extension cord which reduces the effective voltage available for the appliance or tool.

The use of improper size or gauge of extension cords may cause unsafe or ineffi- cient operation of your tool or appliance. It may also damage the tool or appliance. Be sure that any extension cord that you use is rated to allow sufficient current flow to the motor or appliance. Select the required wire gauge size according to the chart below. Chart lists the minimum wire gauge size for the proper extension cord.

EXTENSION CORD CHART

Use the right extension cord. An extension cord should have a suitable wire size for the overall cord length and tool amperage rating. This is to prevent a serious voltage drop, power loss and possible motor damage. Generally, heavier gauge wire is required as cord length increases. Use the recommendations in this table.
