Technical Help with DIY Power cords, Please?
Hi everybody -
I'm going to be building power cords for a pair of monoblocs and I'll be using 12-guage shielded stranded conductors. I've made plenty of power cords before for tools, but never used shielded wire. I hate to sound so ignorant, but should the shield be tied to the grounding conductor, left to float, or some other configuration? Any help greatly appreciated.
