Usually you end up with SOOW anyways, since type SOOW actually is an acceptable SO subsitute, and most manufacturers have switched to just manufacturing SOOW. I'm not even sure you can buy "normal" SO cord anymore. S = Severge service cord. O = Oil Reistant outer Jacket O = Oil resistant wire insulation. W = CSA Weather and water resistant. Mainly you want to avoid the 'SJ' variant (aka SJOOW) since that is typically thinner cord. Many/most round extension cords are type SJ.

Not such a big fan of SJO or other cables, as the SO cord has good, solid jacket which will last almost forever. -forrest On Tue, Dec 8, 2015 at 3:44 PM, Scott Vander Dussen <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Recommendations for 2/4 conductor cable for DC power up tower?
