A heavy duty cord like that would be a great cord for a 240/120 box, since
it has the additional conductor for the neccessary neutral conductor
(U.S.A.).

Since it's a little heavy to be luggaging around, winding it up on a
handtruck would make moving it very easy. The addition of the handtruck
would make a nice remote power center, possibly a tool box and a small work
shelf, with receptacles for light and heavy duty electrical equipment
(welder, drill, grinder, lights etc).

Having the cord carried by the handtruck might minimize dragging the cord on
the ground. If the cord is wound up on a reel on the handtruck, the cord can
be payed out as you roll the cart along.

I put my $2.00 - 150' air hose on a cheap ass hose real I got out of
garbage, put the female disconnect out the water in location and use a
short whip at the work site. I did have to make a new crank for it and
put new pluming to get the connector out the centre of the spool.
