    just go to home depot or lowes. they will have the cord you need. tell them what your hooking up and they will cut it to length. i took off my factory cord and installed a 20' cord. it's only 3 wires, also pick up the right plug for your outlet.

    (i did a small weld project for a friend of mine and switched the plug to work of his range, it worked pretty good too.)

    yup, Home D for the 3 wire 220, they sell it by the foot, or you can buy the whole spool. It's the thick black one w/3 wires inside.(blk,wht,green) Then just buy the correct ends and bam! Careful on the wall end...there's a bunch, have fun.
