Does a long extension cord draw more power than a short extension cord?
No. However, a longer extension cord has higher resistance for a given wire gauge or size compared to a short extension cord and the voltage at the load device may drop so low that it doesn't work properly. This may also be accompanied by a noticeable rise in the temperature of the extension cord. As a rule, use the shortest extension cord that will get the job done. If the extension cord must be long, use one that has heavy gauge wire to minimize voltage drop at the load.
How do you use a USB cord gor your Nintendo DS?
bye not having a ds and gowin some balls so you can drop them :L
I have a 5000 watt Honda generator. How much of a voltage drop will a 25 foot portable generator cord cause?
A 25 foot cord will not cause enough voltage drop to worry about.
Which wire has greater resistance a light plugged into an extension cord or a light plugged directly into a wall?
Light and an extension cord. The extension cord will act as an added resistor in series. The more cord you add will only increase the overall resistance from the wall outlet. If you use a high gage extension cord, this will help reduce the resistance. But any cord will add resistance. If the gage is low, then the cord will actually heat up and you will be able to feel the heat. That is due to the resistance within the cord.

What do homeowners use a subzero refrigerator for?
Everything they use a regular refrigerator for. Subzero is a type of refrigerator, but it is also a brand of refrigerator. They are basically what they sound like, a refrigerator/freezer that reaches and hold subzero temperatures.
Is it safe to bury a drop cord?
what type of wire is it? Cable ,Phone, electric.
Can you plug a refrigerator into a surge protector?
If you mean that the (heavy duty) extension cord has a wire size of #14 or #12 wire in it and that the length is not over 50 feet then you will have no trouble running a refrigerator. Keep in mind that you only use extension cords as a temporary measure and that they are not to be used as replacements for permanent wiring.
An incandescent lamp connected to 120 voltage source with a short extension cord provides more illumination than the same lamp connected to the same source with a very long extension cord?
A: absolutely not lamps needs current a long cord introduce IXR drop making less current for the lamp to use it
How do you use an extension cord as a replacement cord?
noob it up
Can you use a phone cord to get Xbox live?
No. You need broadband. You need to use an Ethernet Cord.
If you have 1200 watt generator how much will voltage drop with 100ft extension cord?
To answer this question more information is needed. The wire size of the extention cord is needed.
How do you get the axe in poptropica's haunted house?
There are two suits of armor in the second-floor hallway. Jump on the head of the second one and he will drop his axe. Use the axe to chip ice from the refrigerator.
