Q: Will using this extension cord slow down my RV charging speed? (When extending over 50 feet)
A: Yes, when the cable length exceeds 50 feet, the electrical resistance significantly increases, leading to noticeable power loss. For example, a 50-amp current can drop to around 40 amps.
Q: Can I use this extension cord to charge my Rivian in snowy conditions?
A: Yes, the flexible PVC jacket safeguards the cord and can handle cold temperatures as low as -4°F (-20°C). However, it should not be buried, as it needs proper ventilation for heat dissipation.
Q: Can I connect multiple extension cords together?
A: No, stacking multiple cords can cause power loss and reduce the current capacity, potentially overheating the cords.
