Very encouraging to say the least. I am glad to hear Mapleshade says the wire they used in the cord for over a decade was used in the manner, use intended, the manufacture designed/manufactured the wire per NEMA/UL standards for use as "power wiring" for a general use electronic equipment power cord.I am sure if you asked them for the manufacture of the wire and data spec sheet of the manufacture for the wire, describing its' designed intended use, they will be more than happy to supply it to you and you could post it here. Please also ask where the manufacture of the wire says the power wire does not need any further protection from physical damage/abuse when used as a 120V power cord.
Thanks,
Jim

Just picked a Shunyata power cord at random.
