Extension Cords & Power Cords

Extension cords provide a tool power when the outlet isn’t within reach. Selecting the right extension cord for the application is important and it’s important to consider many factors when choosing the best extension cord for your planned use. Some extension cords are rated for indoor use only, while others are rated for both indoor and outdoor. The amount of amp load from your tool is also an important factor. The longer cord, the greater the voltage drop. For power tools with a higher amperage, you may want to consider a lower gauge (thicker extension cord) and its always important to keep the cord as short as possible. Tools Plus offers a wide variety of extension cords of various gauges, lengths and intended uses from the top brands.
