What material power/extensio cords you prefer? VV(PVC), BQ(PUR), RN(Rubber) ...
Miyuki:
Hi
just choosing new cables to the workshop to replace annoying old PVC ones - they are so stiff (when not outside on direct sun)
Might stick with H07BQ - PUR seems nice light and flexible and as a bonus are available in a huge variety of colors >:D
What cables do you use? Just the cheapest PVC ones or something fancy?
btw I recently saw an interesting marketing BS: Copper clad aluminum cable is good because is much lighter than a copper one :-DD
nctnico:
I like the neoprene rubber ones the best. I think I have used a PUR sheeted cable for a new mains cable on my compressor but I found it very easy to cut so I'm worried that it may not last that long.
TMM:
cheapo PVC suits me just fine. The stiffness prevents it getting hung up when being dragged around table legs and such :-+

Have a look at those: https://elektron-berlin.de/en/produkte/wires-cables/
Not cheap, but excellent cables for extension cords. Price for 3G2,5 is around 2,5€/m, but you must buy 100m. They make custom print on every meter, for example your company name (this is included in price and is not extra!).
