Leroy- First, use a fork to punch holes in the skin of the 'tater. Otherwise, you may have exploded 'taters all over yer microwave.
Next, I put the tater in a microwave safe bowl with about a 1/2 inch of water. Set for 10 minutes on high and press start.
I don't know how big of a tater you are using so, it's hard to tell you the times.
After about five minutes start checking the tenderness of the tater by sticking a toothpick or fork in it to see how tender it is. If the fork/toothpick slides easily in...the tater is done.
You will figure it out.
Forgot to add, drain water, then go to my next suggestion.
BTW, after cooking the tater, I like to cut it in half and add broccoli then sprinkle some chive and cover with cheddar cheese then top with bacon crumbles.
Microwave again until the cheese is melted.
DON'T add broccoli if you are on Warfarin or other blood thinners! Broccoli is rich in vitamin K which will thicken your blood.

An improperly torqued capscrew on an engine head or a shear bolt that is too hard on the driving shaft of a bushog can create havoc and make an expensive and uncalled for repair. Let’s examine the purpose and design of these fasteners in order to ensure their proper use. Fasteners are probably one of the aspects of mechanics that is given the least amount of thought.
