America Extension Cords

An America Power Cord Extension, also known as an extension cord, is a cable that allows you to extend the reach of an existing electrical outlet. It has a plug on one end that fits into a standard wall outlet, and a socket on the other end that you can plug your appliance or device into. Extension cords come in a variety of lengths, from a few feet to hundreds of feet, and can have multiple outlets on the end.

common uses for extension cords:

  • To power appliances or devices that are far away from an outlet
  • To create temporary power sources for events or construction projects
  • To provide power to outdoor areas, such as a deck or patio

some safety tips:

  • Only use extension cords that are rated for the amount of power that you will be using. The rating will be listed on the cord itself.
  • Do not overload extension cords. Do not plug in more appliances than the cord can handle.
  • Do not use extension cords in place of permanent wiring.
  • Inspect extension cords for damage before each use. Do not use damaged cords.
  • Do not run extension cords under rugs or carpets.
  • Do not staple or nail extension cords to walls or floors.
