Rubbish, there will be no inductive heating effect. The current in live
will match that in neutral and thus negate any induction. The only
heating effect in a coiled lead on ac is that of resistive heating,
which becomes a problem on a coiled up lead, because the heat produced
is unable to escape.


Could not have put it better!
