Assuming that the extension cord is plugged into a normal household receptacle rated at 15 amps the cord will handle 15A x 120V = 1800 watts. If the cord is of any length, at that wattage, you will feel the cord start to get warm like a heating cable.
you can get an electric shock from an extention cord because if you are Vaccuming your car and you pull the extention cord out of the plug you will get a 2-5 second shock
A satellite DVR uses about 80 watts. This value can be found where the plug in cord meets the chassis of the recorder.
Length and wire gauge will determine this for you...

I need an extension cord for my radio, because its cord is not long enough.
an extention cord...
To answer this question more information is needed. The wire size of the extention cord is needed.
Yes, the green conductor is the colour of the ground wire in an extension cord. The black wire is dedicated to be the "hot" and the white conductor is the neutral.
You can rewire your extension cord by replacing the existing wire with green, black and white wires. In most situations it is safer and cheaper to buy a new extention cord.

Yes, and extension cord can be used with a microwave. But it is critical to pick an extension cord with a sufficiently high rating on it. Hardware stores and large home stores have extension cords specifically for use as appliance extension cords. They are heavy, and they have only a single place on the end to plug something into. They cost a bit, but are worth it in peace of mind.
When the outlet is more than 40 feet away, or when you are operating 2 or more tools from it.
The quality of the cable really has very little to do with the sound providing it is good and large enough to handle the power. Lamp cord often called zip cord would be fine unless you running over a 100 feet or very high power over 200 watts to the speakers.
