Interesting. My small distro came with a 50' feeder on it. I went down to my friendly industrial electrical supply house and picked up a pre-made 50' 6/4 CA extension cord for when I need to reach further. It was a bit better price than buying connectors and cable. I assume the only reason for this things existence on their shelf would be to extend runs from sources to spider boxes/distros. I have had fire marshalls look at it and not say anything about the intermediate connection. Now I'm worried that some stickler will call me on it and I'm up a creek.
NEC Article 520.53(J)
(J) Number of Supply Interconnections. Where connectors
are used in a supply conductor, there shall be a maximum
number of three interconnections (mated connector
pairs) where the total length from supply to switchboard
does not exceed 30 m (100 ft). In cases where the total
length from supply to switchboard exceeds 30 m (100 ft),
one additional interconnection shall be permitted for each
additional 30 m (100 ft) of supply conductor.
Tail to feeder: 1 interconnection; feeder to extension feeder: 1 interconnection; feeder to distro: 1 interconnection. You should be good.
