Introduction
Choosing the appropriate wire gauge is essential to ensure the safety, performance, and durability of extension cords, especially for longer lengths, such as those up to 10 meters. Extension cords with an inadequate gauge can cause voltage drops, excessive heating of the cables, and even the risk of short circuits or fires.
In this context, this document aims to present technical recommendations for selecting the appropriate wire gauge for extension cords up to 10 meters, taking into account factors such as the electrical current required, the power of the equipment to be powered, and current technical standards.

| 2 | BOB 60A | 13AWG |
| 3 | BOB 120A | 11AWG |
| 4 | PRO CHARGER 30A | 13AWG |
| 5 | PRO CHARGER 40A | 13AWG |
| 6 | PRO CHARGER 90A | 11 AWG |
| 7 | PRO CHARGER 180A | 9AWG |
| 8 | PRO CHARGER 250A | 10AWG SUPPLY VOLTAGE 220V |
| 9 | SMART CHARGER 70/90A | 13AWG |
| 10 | SMART CHARGER 100/130A | 12AWG |
| 11 | SMART CHARGER 120/160A | 12AWG |
| 12 | SMART CHARGER 200/280A | 9AWG |
This document specifies the appropriate wire gauge for extension cables up to 10 meters long, intended exclusively for powering Taramps power supplies. It should be noted that this recommendation does not apply to other peripheral equipment or electronic devices and is valid only for use with the aforementioned power supplies. Correctly defining the wire gauge ensures optimal performance, avoids voltage drops, prevents excessive heating of the conductors, and guarantees the safety of the electrical system, in accordance with the required technical and operational standards.
