A search of "Loose Power Cable" didn't turn up much so I thought I would start a thread on this.
I just got my first big heavy "garden hose" power cable, a CPCC Model 11. And I am finding that it the combination of its weight and connections that aren't very tight at both ends, it tends to droop at both the outlet of my Running Springs Haley power conditioner and at the IEC of my amp.
So I am looking for suggestions of what, if anything, I can do to tighten up the connections at both locations. At the power outlet of the Haley, I have used some spare Herbies Grungebuster discs as shims between the CPCC and the power cord plugged in below it to keep the CPCC from drooping.
Any other thoughts or recommendations are much appreciated.
