Wonderful! I've got a compressor that dosn't run on
the extension cord. I've been waiting for someone to
use ohms law and help me understand.

You da man!

Ohm's law with DC circuit is straight forward dealing with just
resistance. With AC circuit it has to deal with resistance and
reactance by inductor and/or capacitor. Unit of conductaance(vs. R)
is Mho, Admittance is Y(vs. Z)
