19.2.1 Extension Cords
The use of extension cords is not recommended since they reduce the available
voltage. Only heavy-duty extension cords rated for at least 1200 watts (10 Amps
@ 120V) that are no longer than 12 feet should be used.
The extension cord must have the grounding wire that mates with the grounding
plug on the HomeChoice/HomeChoice PRO APD System power cord.
