Why have I listed a Power Cord? It’s one of the most popular add-ons because InSinkErator garbage disposal units do not normally include a power cord!
This InSinkErator CRD-00 Power Cord Kit is an easy-to-fit add-on. It includes a 3ft cord (that’s UL Listed), a strain relief clamp to make sure the cord is never under stress, wire connectors and installation instructions. At the end of cord is a standard plug that’ll fit a standard wall outlet. This genuine InSinkErator product meets Underwriter Laboratories Inc. SPT-3 category for insulation thickness and moisture resistance.
How to connect the cord
If you’re not going to hard-wire the garbage disposer, then you need a wall outlet. If you don’t have a wall outlet, you have three options:
a) hire an electrician to install a new outlet
b) obtain a homeowner electrical permit from your local government office and do it yourself, and then have it inspected
c) do it yourself without a permit (which is a violation in most jurisdictions)
Warning: Electricity is dangerous! Do not try and install this unless you are qualified in your state to install electrical devices !
