CordGauge Guide is a directory, not a cord brand

CordGauge Guide helps people pick portable-cord gauge by amps × run length × AWG so a 15 A shop tool is not hanging on a 16 AWG “outdoor” reel. We do not manufacture cords. We do not invent star ratings.

The site is published by Laqaer Products at www.cordgaugeguide.com. For corrections or a voltage-drop assumption we should label more clearly, write hello@cordgaugeguide.com.

Editorial standards

• No fake scores. We will not rank cords 9.4 vs 8.7. Gauge, length, listing, and jacket type are the comparison.
• Planning math, labeled as planning math. Copper drop uses published NEC Chapter 9 Table 8 resistances. That is not a lab test of a named SKU.
• The mark on the cord wins. Ampacity is the listing and the plug, not AWG wishful thinking.
• Jacket ≠ gauge. SJTW is weather. It is not thicker copper.
• No other-brand bleed. This property is CordGauge Guide only — not a dumping ground for unrelated Laqaer consumer sites.

How the site is funded

Amazon Associates links may appear when a named outdoor cord is relevant; a purchase through those links may earn Laqaer Products a commission. Money does not buy a score here. See privacy for how a content-and-affiliate site handles data.

What we are not

Not an electrician, not a listing agency, not a substitute for the tool nameplate or the cord jacket print. If a cord is hot, cracked, or the tool bogs on a long run, stop stacking light-duty reels and size the copper — or hire a licensed electrician to put a receptacle closer to the work.
