Can anyone please provide me with the specs for these cords? Wire Gauge ___, ratings for watts and OR amps ___? Markings on cords___? Thank you

I got mine as 16AWG 105C 300v FT2 UL certified. The Wire's are thick and well made.

I'm using the cords for DC adapters to a power strip. Here is what I can make out on the cord:18AWG 105C 300v FT2On the female plug:EL-706CSA (logo)E88446

Now it's August 2015 and this may not be timely but, for other readers, here is the lettering impressed into the wire:(UL) SJT E162604 3x16AWG (1.31mm(sq))VW-105 C 300V FT2 CHING CHENG CSA Type LL61597 They're rated at 13 amperes.

this is equivalent to going to an auto parts store and saying, 'I need a tire'. All I can say is that the 115 outlets are industry standard for standard extension cords. I have NO clue as to what other 'power cord', amps rating, volts rating, length or socket type you might be referring to. regrets.

I Just looked at the Sockets but, they don't say the wattage on them !!! They have 18 gauge Wire connected to them. I used them with 200 Watt Grow BULBS on them, if that helps ???

Every extension cord I've ever seen has the same lead warning (Christmas lights too). The socket and plug ends of the cord are factory sealed so I can't see the wiring material directly, I dont remember if the package specified. I was focussed on the load rating, since the maximum output mine will have to Cary is 23amps at 240volts I felt the 30 amp rating left a comfortable margin. Cable is heavy duty and performs well for my purpose (connecting generator to transfer switch).

Not heavy enough for power cables, they get very hot at 3 amperes. Not sure of the gauge wire but I'd guestimate it to be about the same as Dollar A dozen jumper cables w/alligator clips.

I will agree with you, the rating seems low. I have them operating on 70 volt lines and am running it to 25 watts without any trouble. I'm sure it can go more. Remember, that 50 watts could be 5 amps...+_ depending on output voltage and load impedance

I don't recall the exact legnth however they are approx 1m or 3 feet. I swapped them out to 2m cords for my needs.

I am not sure about the guage of the wire...It looks like this kit is ok for car amp's that are less than 400 watts max output.I would not recommend it for high output amps.

I would check the watts and amperage first. I didn't but you might be on to something.

Not for me so far I run 2@ 285 watt and they have been working for over a year now . Make sure you ground your equipment properly .

You can test by using a extension cord with the same AMP and thickness 14g to handle the watts. until you receive the extreme weather extension cord. which will not harden like others.

I checked the box that my lights came in and it says 1.9A @ 12v, 0.8A @ 24v. It seems like when I installed them I checked the current draw and it was about 1.0A but can't remember for sure. However, using 27 watts and 12 volts it calculates out to 2.25 amps. I know mine are not drawing near that much.

Check the watts. I think you will be short. I gauge by how many watts needed, not by amps. Jim

I would depend on what you are powering. If you are using more than 7500 watt then do not use this cord.

I use a 3 wire (grounded) 15 amp cord. Even on high, the watt draw is only about 130w, so the cord doesn't need to be extra heavy, just grounded

Hi, KenG,The information that came with this indoor extension cord didn't indicate a wire gauge. It does, however, have information that may contain a code for the size of the gauge that perhaps you would recognize. Here is all of the information that is on the cord: 13A, 125V, 1625W, E186244, A432173C3. I hope this helps.

I don't have my original box or any paperwork because I bought this item a couple years ago, and I can't remember if there was any listing of wattage. However mine was plugged into a 20amp (3-prong outlet and I also used a 25' 12amp extension cord. I ran the cable heater across the inside of my gutter and down the downspout, exposing the last 3' of it plugged into the extension cord. This worked fine..for me no ice build ups in the gutter.I can't remember the amperage listed on the cable...but to figure watts, its amps x volts(120) =Watts. Hope this helps.
