I have my 50 amp service entrance cable coiled up in the bay. When I set up I take the whole cable out onto the ground. Then I open up the round plastic access door in the bottom of the bay. Then I start feeding the cable down through that whole until I get enough fed to reach the post. Then the extra I just kind of coil up into the bay and shut the big bay door. I have seen guys with those motorized cord reels setting up. Doesn't look like a huge time saver. And I'm a huge anti complications guy. I don't think I'd want a motorized cord reel. Not only the motor to break, but also those 50 amp connections spinning around.
