Can I use an extension cord with my G5?Updated 15 days ago

We don't recommend it. Plug your panel directly into a grounded wall outlet whenever you can.

If an extension cord can't be avoided, it must be rated for the current your panel draws (see What are the G5 specifications?). If you're unsure, ask a licensed electrician. The wrong extension cord, power bar or surge protector is a serious hazard and could cause a fire.

See it in the manual: G5 Series User Manual, page 34 (FAQ)
