18/2 SVT-B or 16/3 SJT-B for 10amp Shark Navigator vacuum? 18/2 SVT-B Purple Nylon Fabric Cloth Covered Pendant and Table Lamp Wire

I’m replacing the power cord on my 10amp Shark Navigator vacuum (and making it a bit longer). Should I get 18/2 SVT-B or 16/3 SJT-B (using only 2 of the conductors)? Many thanks in advance!

PLEASE CONSULT WITH AN CERTIFIED ELECTRICIAN and/or VACUUM REPAIR EXPERT BEFORE PROCEEDING!

We would recommend using 16/3 SJT-B cord

The thicker wire and durable jacket provide better heat resistance and long-term safety for a high-current device like a vacuum cleaner.
The grounding conductor ensures compliance with modern electrical safety standards.

If your vacuum requires a grounded plug (3-prong), 16/3 SJT-B is the only option. If it only has a 2-prong plug, 18/2 SVT-B might work, but 16/3 is still a better choice for durability and safety.
