riddle me this....inductive heating?

When i was a teen, a friend's grandpa had one of those drop light extension cord in a spring loaded reel hanging in his show. We were using it one evening, powering a small handheld electric drill If I''m remembering correctly.... and the real caught on fire....yep flames and all....
I'm a mechanical guy and while I'm fairly electrical savvy I'm no expert.... but I've always figured it was induction....

so my question...
what keeps these cord reels in RV's from lighting up?

(I mean, like when the cord is only partially extended to an outlet close by)
