Power Adapter Extension Cable from macbook pro retina 2014

Hi,


I just bought a new Macbook Pro 2020. Pretty happy with the product. Unfortunately, there is no Power Adapter Extension Cable include in the box. Question is, Can I just use the "Power Adapter Extension Cable" from my existing Macbook pro retina 2014 connect to the "61W USB‑C Power Adapter"? (from the new MacBook Pro) I'm afraid of the power supply problem that might occur and break my new Macbook Pro. Please suggest.


Regards,

Teerapat

Yes, they stopped including the 3 prong ground extension— I guess the profit margin wasn't high enough for Apple(?)


The extension cord is just that— and interchangeable yes.
