If 100' of SO cord is supposed to trip a GFCI I should see 2-3ma of ground current from 50 feet (plus the 35 foot SJOW cord on the cleaner).

OK folks
Want to get your bets down?
50' of 6ga SO cord
35' of 10ga SJOW cord
35' of 10ga Romex
5HP motor load on the end
Will I measure on the green wire at the panel?
(A) much less than a milliamp
(B) about 1ma
(C) 2-3ma
(D) 4-5ma
(E) Greater than 5
The winner would be the one who picked 2-3ma.
You took the long way but I'm glad you're in agreement. GFI
would have been bad for my application.
