That's a terrific idea but I have to ask... what type of cord is "RV TYPE" cord?

Is the insulation thermoplastic or thermoset?

ETT? SJO? SEO? SVTOO?

Most RV cords are SEOW or STW, TPE thermoplastic rubber Jacket.

We use the same type for our jobsite cords 10 gauge with a 3 way and then use 12 gauge cords from there.

Makes great "main" feed cords. I have a 50' 10/3 cord that was a shore power cord for marine applications (same high grade outer jacket). It is more than twenty years old and does not have a single gouge out of the jacket, and the word "kink" is not even in it's vocablary . It is a little tough to find a non twist lock male plug that will accept a 10 ga wire, but Pass and Seymour makes them for about $20. I have only had to replace it twice in all this time, and both of those were for a broken ground prong caused by morons yanking the cord side ways.
