Regardless of brand or manufacturer, power cords ARE NOT included with Electric Range Ovens and must be purchased separately. Manufacturers do not include power cords with electric range ovens because they cannot guarantee which type of outlet and amperage is needed. This is due to the lack of standard electric codes for ranges, which means there are no specific plug types or circuit sizes for these appliances. The power cords must fit into the correct type of outlet and amperage, and the type of outlet may vary from house to house. Therefore, manufacturers choose to exclude power cords from the packaging to ensure compatibility with the user's home setup. Depending on your local building codes and regulations, or in their absence, with the latest edition of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70, you can use a 3-conductor or a 4-conductor UL-listed range cord with closed-loop terminals, open-end spade lugs with upturned ends, or similar termination. Do not install the power cord without a strain relief. If in doubt about which type of power cord is permitted in your area, check your local building codes, consult you local building inspector, or a qualified, licensed electrician...^Ivan.
