Default Lost Electricity

IF you can't read then that's OK too.

Windsun said that coiled cord gets hot from resistance, not
electromagnetic effects. You don't understand what was said.

Uhm... maybe from resistance at the connection?

Voltage, current doesn't count then. I wonder how DC can heat up
a connection then.

Being coiled has nothing at all to do with getting hot, it is
merely that more heat is concentrated in that area. Heat comes
from resistance, and at 60 Hz that is the ONLY factor.

Was the cord coiled up making an electro magnetic heater?

I'd be suspect of the cord setup as then can generate a lot of
heat. Years ago at work had one start to smoke plugged to a
truck block heater. Where the cord was coiled, it go damned hot
and that heat translates to energy use.
