4-wire dryer power cord **longer** than 6 feet

Might be easier moving the outlet,i think code says you cant have cords longer then 6 feet for stuff inside a building.Thats why most stuff you buy has 6 foot cords.

Hi,

The longest 4 prong cord that I am aware of is 6 feet. I have seen 10 foot 3 prong cords but none that are 4 prone and that long.

Sorry,

jeff.

I seem to recall that Home Depot carries a 9 foot 4 prong( two hots a neutral and a ground) dryer pigtail 10 gage 30 amp in their electrical department, not in their appliance department.

(maybe against code but they do sell it) go an electrical supply house and get this or do this one off the web:

(another one that is against code but they do sell the parts) get an surface mount outlet and 2 dryer cords and use the first one as an extension cord.

You "think" code says "stuff"?? You don't know jack s*it about anything do you? Find a hobby. Giving advice isn't your forte.

Thanks everyone for our input!

I've got a call in to our electrician. I'll confirm the code issue as well. If it is a code issue, I'll probably just have the outlet moved. I'll sleep better that way!

Best, SZ

"Our electrician"??? You have your own electrician?? And you're begging people in here for answers?? What a chickenshit.

They do make a 10' 4 wire dryer cord. here is the link.

??????? Always had to by one as there are many variations on dryer and stove outlets. Mobile home code usually requres 4 prong, while standard home outlets are 3 prong. You move you just might have to either change plugs and cord or outlet. Just did this for someone a few months ago!
