LG makes a bracket that screws to the top of the washer, and then screws to the bottom of the dryer after you mount it on top. You need this to make sure that the vibration does not move the dryer so it comes off the washer. The power cord is a 240 V AC so it's going to have a special plug configuration in order to match the 240 V outlet that it plugs into. You will need to get the current rating in order to figure out exactly which outlet configuration to get.

The ENERGY STAR® Qualified LG 7.4 cu. ft. Ultra Large Capacity Smart Wi-Fi Enabled SteamDryer™, Model # DLEX3700W can be stacked onto its matching Front Load Washer using the 27" LG Stacking Kit, Model # KSTK1. As for the power cord, the dryer has ts own terminal block that must be connected to a separate 240 VAC, 60-Hertz, single-phase circuit, fused at 30 amperes (the circuit must be fused on both sides of the line). The power cord (pigtail) connection between the wall receptacle and the dryer terminal block IS NOT supplied with the dryer. The type of pigtail and gauge of wire must conform to local codes. You can use a Use a 3-wire or 4-wire 30-amp, 240-volt, UL-listed power cord with #10 AWG-minimum copper conductor and closed loop or forked terminals with upturned ends. A 4-wire connection is required for all mobile and manufactured home installations, as well as all new construction after January 1, 1996. A 4-wire connection must be used where local codes do not permit grounding through the neutral wire. It is also required for areas where local codes prohibit grounding through the neutral conductor. As mentioned before, a 3-wire connection is NOT permitted on new construction after January 1, 1996. If you are not sure which one to use in your home, please contact your local building inspector pr a qualified electrician...^IFV
