[QUOTE="Brian jojade, post: 145919, member: 211"] Re: Correct feeder cable for distro Ventilation wasn't an issue, nor was excess current. Again, under 1000 watts on a 12 gauge cable under a 2 foot stage shouldn't have made the cable even noticeably warm to the touch. Only the portion that was coiled was hot. The legs of the cable were cool to the touch. Had we been running a heavy load that caused the whole wire to get warm, I could explain the cable being warmer at the coil due to simple heat buildup, but this was different, for sure. Again, the cord got warm enough to 'smell' hot, which is significant cause for concern. [/QUOTE]
