I have a job where the customer wants a circuit out in his pole shed for lights and a battery tender. Not much amps. Problem is the pole shed is 500’ from the meter and 600’ from the panel in the house.
Told him he needs to have the POCO put in a meter at pole shed, does not want to spend the money to do that. Now he asked me what type of extension cord to get to run from the house to the pole shed! Told him that was not wise, as that is not what extension cords are made for and it’s very dangerous to do. Also reminded him again about the voltage drop and the size of cable you would need to compensate for that.
I don’t feel he’s going to let up, how would you handle this, or is there something else I can do?
