What is recommended power cord for the Anderson Power Pole connectors?
I was able to pick up a bag of 30A connectors at the Hamfest on
Saturday.  Western Mountain Radio who sells the RigRunner power bar for
power pole connectors sells 10AWG & 12AWG zip cord.  Wouldn't solid wire
be a better conductor, or does it matter for shorter lengths?  Zip cord
is certainly more user friendly, but don't want to turn the zip cord
into a heating element, either.
