My power cord is essentially out all the time lying on the ground.Is it advisable to do anything to protect the rubber sheath?Thanks.

Mine is 15 years old including 3 years in S.E. Ga sun (Harsh) ... No issues.Now you may need to protect it from the lawn mower.

I would wipe it down occaisonally to remove dirty and other contaminantes. Something like Armorall will help somewhat.

If your feeling like you have free time and want to mess around with something... Wipe it down with coat of 303 protectant. If not, don't worry

I wipe our 18 year old 50 amp power cord down with 303 periodically, partly because it helps keep dirt from sticking to it. That makes stowing it during moves a little less messy.
