[QUOTE="johnr, post: 176244, member: 395"] I had an extension cord, very light gauge one in one of those wind up wheel things for easy rolling them up and storing them. Well I unwound about 20 ft of a hundred ft cord and plugged my 5th wheel in to cool it down and load the fridge. That light cord carried the current and turned that wheel deal into a melted mess. The electricity going through that under gauged wire was apparently very hot, as the entire set up was on piece when I finally noticed the air quit running. Don't short cut anything, this was luckily just in my driveway, and not in the walls of my home. [/QUOTE]
