For a 5500-watt generator, you should use an extension cord rated for at least 20 amps to safely handle the electrical load. Make sure the extension cord is in good condition and of the appropriate gauge to prevent overheating and ensure safe operation.
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.
#16 <<>> To load an extension cord to 1725 watts depending on the length of the cord, the bare minimum should be #14. A better size cord and my recommendation would be a #12 wire size extension cord.
If there is no load plugged into the cord there will be no power consumed. The only time the resistance of the cord will come into effect is when the circuit becomes energized through the load plugged into the end of the cord.
Yes, as long as the extension cord is rated for the load. Most microwave ovens use 1000W or more, some less. A standard two wire extension cord would be unsafe. There are, however, extension cords which have the proper gauge of wire and the necessary 3-prong outlets which a microwave would need to operate safely.
I unpacked my lunch.
The load extension graph passes through the origin because at the beginning of the test, there is no load applied, so the extension is zero. This is the starting point on the graph where load and extension are proportional to each other before any deformation occurs.
YES THEY ARE BECAUSE THE UNPACKED FOODS SIT OUT AND THEY SPOIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sorry, did you mean 'meaning of Extension'
With that size of load and a voltage of up to 300 or 600 volts, any extension cord can be used.

I t is a file extension for "Stopizilla"
extension and contraction in demand. extension mean increase in demand and contraction man decrease in demand
Use a three conductor #14 for the 250 watt load.
Hooked law is: Extension is proportionate to the load provided the elastic limit is not exceeded
