Does a mains extension cable mean slower charging via USB plug?

[supashaka]

I understand the thinner the internal wires in a USB cable (the AUG), the more resistance there is meaning slower charging. Also the longer the cable, the more the resistance. So the lower number AUG (eg. 24AUG) the larger the potential for faster charging.

But does that mean if I plug the charger of my android tablet into a 4 socket extension cable of say 2m, it would add to the resistance and mean potentially slower charging?

Note I'm not talking about a USB extension cable, but a mains plug extension lead. This is where I got my initial info, but it doesn't mention if the same is true for mains extensions:

The charging speed of your tablet will not be affected by plugging your transformer into a power extension. The charging transformer draws far less power than even the smallest power extension can deliver.

Does that mean there isn't any resistance in the mains extension, so AUG of it's 2 metre cable isn't relevant?

You are worrying that putting a fly on a car will make it run slower, that's about the effect that a power extender will have on your power to the charger. The only way that changing power would have an affect is if the draw on the power line was near the max, then adding a long extension can cause issues. The power draw of the charger is almost 0 compared to the overall capability of the outlet.
