Sorry, read this again..I think my fuses may be 12a
If it's a fuse, it will likely be either 15A or 20A. I've never seen a 12A fuse. If it's an old house, it might be that thinner wiring was used that would only be rated for 12A by today's standards. If you're going to use an extension cord, although I said a 14/3 (14 gauge, 3 prong) one would likely be sufficient, for ease of mind you could get a 12/3 one. A 12/3 won't be too much more expensive than a 14/3 of the same length. -- Scott
