I figured this is the perfect place to ask, I was doing some research trying to find out the largest 3-phase circuit i could fit in a cord reel, (within reason) has anyone had experience with a reel like this? if I wanted to install a cord reel for a 3ph-4w circuit with #6 or #8 phase conductors where could i find a reel everywhere I look it appears to be for 1ph systems only (120v) is there a company that specalize in this type of cord reel construction for a industrial plant?

Biggest single flexible cable I ever saw on a reel was on the back of a genset truck, the (rubber sheathed, five core cable) cable must have been a bit under three inches in diameter, on a reel about six foot across... I wouldn't have fancied pulling that thing from the street to the dimmers many yards away...

you can get what you need from Hannay, probably from reelcraft or cox too. Hannay goes up to 100 amps, so you could accomplish what you want. Probably has a bit of a leadtime though. What is it for?
