Armoured extension cord
I need an armoured extension cord to power my RV at home, but I need it to cross the driveway, so it will be run over by the vehicles. Any suggestions?

What material is your driveway made from, hard surface, asphalt (blacktop) concrete , the above suggestions are great, gravel stone etc, uneven, then questionable especially if there are tire depressions.

Packed gravel and there are tire depressions.
Roflmao! Glad Ken and Bev asked the question!
You can still build a cover. Way easier if it’s short term.
But longer term, tossing a sleeve under the driveway is pretty easy too.
And the building code nanny’s need to go find a gvw or towing thread to stretch their legs (and keyboard in).
Although, it’s probably worth mentioning since you couldn’t come up with this “solution” on your own….if your truly thinking about a permanent install, I’d agree that installing a service would be better, probably from both a convenience and functional standpoint, but you gotta provide more info.
Like length of run, power requirements for the camper, etc.
That said, the “experts” here may be right or may be wrong. The extension cords I have poking out of the shop running to the camper and other trailer for years now don’t seem to be an issue. But every condition is different.
