No cable included. I used the one from my old dryer. You also need a vent tube and clamps.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Regardless of brand or manufacturer, power cords ARE NOT supplied with Electric Dryers, except for one or two brands, and must be purchased separately. An electric dryer can use either of 2 types of power cords: a 3-prong or a 4-prong power cord. Old electric dryers use 3-prong cords whereas new ones use the 4-prong variants. If the cord type does not match the power outlet at your home, the dryer will not work. If your house was built in the mid-’90s, before January 1, 1996, then your house most probably fits with a 3-prong power outlet for the dryer. But if it’s built after January 1,1996, then according to the National Electrical Code (NEC)’s mandate, your house has a 4-prong power outlet installed. You can check your local building codes and regulations, consult your local building inspector, or a qualified, licensed electrician, about whether you can connect a 30-amp, 240-volt, 3-wire, or 4-wire, UL-listed power cord with #10 AWG-minimum copper conductor and closed loop or forked terminals with upturned ends, to the dryer's terminal block, which 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.). Ductwork and fittings are NOT included and must be purchased separately...^Ivan.
