If you arent plugged in directly your extension cord may not be heavy gauge enough or too long. if too small it would have worked FINE FOR AWHILE, but kept getting hot creating resistance and ruining cord. i use 10AWG. Check connection torque on circuit panel to breakers? POWER DIS-CONNECTED FIRST OF COURSE. GOOD LUCK.
