An undersized cord is a potential fire hazard, and will
cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power
causing the product to overheat. The table indicates
the correct size cord for length required and the ampere
rating listed on the product nameplate. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gage cord. The smaller the gage
number, the heavier the wire gage.
3
Extension cords:
