Three-prong plug extension cords are the most common for outdoor use. The third prong essentially serves as a super ground for carrying high voltage. It greatly reduces the risk of electric fire caused by short circuits. It does need to be plugged into a three-prong outlet to work properly.
How do I know if my extension cord is for outdoor use?
