Best Answer

It is the voltage drop from the undersized wire that is used in the extension cord. Under this condition you will find that the drill will start to become hot with the additional current that the drill is trying to draw to keep the motor turning. It could get to a point where the breaker will trip before the drill burns out.

What is the difference between manual sewing machine and an electric sewing machine?

An electric sewing machine does it's work by using electricity to move the needle up and down, and rotate the bobbin.
