30 amp power cords---25' or 50'??
I'm about to start buying the electrical cords and adapters I need for my new rig since I'm a newbie and don't have any gear to start with.
A basic question to start with. I'm planning to use 30 amp cords for those situations where the CG doesn't have 50 amp power and/or I don't feel I need more than 30 amp power. I figure I will need at least 50 feet of 30 amp cord in at least some situations, whereas 25 feet of cord will be enough in other situations. My initial question--is it sufficient to buy two 25 foot 30 amp cords to handle both situations, and just plug the two together when I need a 50 foot cord, or would I be better off having both a 50 foot cord and a 25 foot cord so that I don't loose some juice in the plug connection if I'm in a marginal power situation and need 50 feet of cord?
