For those not using their generators in permanent wiring hookups, how do you manage your cables?
Any tips for good ways to fasten connectors to reels?
For those of you deployed with generator experience who must have done this more than a few times, any tips from the field? Is there a TM that covers the recommended procedure(s)?
Thanks in advance!
All the best,

EDIT: I am using 6ga type W portable cable, about 1.2" in diameter, a heavier version of SEOOW portable cable, with pin and sleeve connectors, 560 series. It is pretty similar to many of the portable power distribution cables used in the more recent military portable power systems.
