[Namron] Power Cords

[Marion Makkingze]

If there is no other way, and a cord must go over a concrete walkway, the
best solution is one of those rubber cord covers from the office supply
store that allow you to pass over the cord.  Or a couple of strips of duct
or gaff tape, completely covering the cord from one side of the sidewalk to
the other.  If possible running the cord along a crack in the walkway, so
that the bump is lower will help too.  A little common sense, creativity,
and courtesy will allow solutions to be found that will not disrupt the flow
of traffic, or cause an accident.

Depends upon the site. A small shovel and a turn of dirt. Ran form tree
to tree tied to limbs. There are many ways to hide a cord but I would
caution people against covering a walkway.

Greetings, Namron.

I have noticed more extension cords being used at events.  Their
intended use doesn't matter in this discussion.  What bugs me a little,
though, is seeing a bunch of bright orange cords stretched halfway
across a site.  Even then, I can look past that.  People are pretty good
at running them along walls and fences so they don't stand out or get in
the way.

But sometimes these cords cross walkways, and that is dangerous.  Even
crossing empty clearings will get people in the dark and children at any
time.  Or people on crutches, or folks carrying too many things to see
their feet.  Or, for that matter, women in large skirts.

So has anyone thought of a good way to keep their extension cords from
being the start of the next great tumbling act?

Baron Ulf
