Is there a wattage maximum for this cord?

A reviewer says that the packaging states 1875W. This equals 15A at 125V. I found advertising that states 15A to 15/20A 125V (maybe on the package too but I don't have that any more). That indicates that it is built to handle 20A--the wiring is clearly thicker and heavier than standard household extension cords. That would allow 2500W max. HOWEVER, this cord should be connected to wiring that is rated at 20A continuously all the way back to a 20A breaker. If you plug the cord into a heavy appliance outlet (NEMA 5-20R) that should be safe. There will be dangerous heat buildup if you pull more than 1875W through 15A wiring, even if the breaker is 20A.

YES! !500 watts maximum. Pretty good cable. Not to be burried. Open air only. Burried type cable =$$$$$ Big bucks. Concur with #1 Response concerning UHF.

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 meant to say no. 300 watt is the max. You are at 400. Too much will melt cable

Not sure of actual watts . It is a standard cord ( like on a lamp) I hope this helps.

Not sure but I have a 8000 / 10000 watt gen. I run 3000 Watts from the gen itself and 6000 Watts goes through the cord. Never had a problem.

I just checked the web console on mine and it says its max power is 370 watts.

I'm a retired local 3 electrican. This coid will handel the 8500 watts no problem. You'll probably never be using 8500 watts anyway. But I've used this cord o three genrator installations and never had any issues.

I do not think that there is a minimum wattage. I use mine to switch outside lighting fixtures total of 6 bulbs at 4w each. Works fine.

According to the information on the unit itself, NO. It is listed at 120 volts 60htz. The power cord is designed for 120 only and is a magnetic type. Sorry.

No, I believe the maximum is 44 watts! if you use more there is a risk of overheating the unit. This would be a potential fire risk. I would check with a licensed electrician to be sure!

I really don't know the wattage or amerage of this cord. I purchased it for and table top electric grill. All I can say it worked for me, I didn't have to throw the grill out because the old cord was getting hot to the touch. Hope this helps you.

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

If the generator has a L14-30 receptacle and whatever you are powering up has a L14-30 plug, than yes. The cord is rated for 7000 watts.

If it sees at least 13.6 volts it shouldn't be to much of a problem. At 12 volts I would only expect 3, 300-3, 500 watts max.

Unfortunately no, 60 watts max. is recommended, but I have been using a 100 watt bulb without any problems.

I just looked at the base of the bulb and it seems like it says 26 watts. Don't think that will exceed the maximum of your lamp.
