QuinceDaPence,

Same. Also, countertop appliances should always have at least a 3' cord. I believe that's part of electrical code.

QuinceDaPence,

3 feet.

' is feet

" Is inches

Example: someone who is 5 foot 9 inches tall can write their height as 5'9"

QuinceDaPence,

Yeah I know plenty of chenese stuff ignores it. I forget where it's said but countertop appliances are supposed to be 3' cords and others are supposed to have 6' cords. And then in houses you're supposed to have plugs at those distances so people usually shouldn't need extension cords.

QuinceDaPence,

I also remembered it's often written in that format on clearance height signs and such so here's an "In the wild" example.
