Electrical cord wrapped in a circle cause problems?
Several weeks back was at a private campground. The owner and another fellow were trying to work out a lack of ground on their 50 amp connection (this really is neither here nor there).
Anyway, the owner (a man in his 70/80's) said that having my 50 amp cord wrapped in a circle (you know, like a snake curled up), can cause electrical issues (feedback, etc).
Hey, I am no electrician.
Any reason we shouldn't wrap our electrical cords, or is it an old wives tale?
Or was it an issue way back, but with better insulation in the cords, not an issue anymore?
