Can I change power cord to 3 prong to a dryer three prong

It is easier to change the actual plug to a 220V plug than to change the power cord on the a/c

Honestly this is not my background. However this unit operates on a 220 circuit, hence the reason for the different plug style. Personally I would leave plug as it is and not mess with it.

if you know what your doing, I would say yes, 240 volts (aka 220, aka 230) is same, just diff plug/socket configurationn

I'm not certain, although I hope that you understand that the reasoning behind the plug style on the A/C is so that you are only able to plug the A/C in to a 220 volt circuit and NOT in to the standard 110 volt!!!

Considering the poorly made LCDI cord is very prone to failure on the Fridgidaire units, I would say go ahead and put a normal cord on it before install. The rest of the unit is top notch and mine is going on 10 years old but the cord costs $140 to replace every couple years unless you go with a standard non lcdi cord. On here actually looking to purchase a new one just for energy efficiency.

No. It will void the UL Listing. A dryer cord is rated for 30 amp and the air conditioner is only rated at 20.

Radio shack sells power cords with the ability to change the connector and power settings. About 15.00, used for many things and they work great.

The cords are very easy to obtain at any local appliance store or big box hardware store(Lowe's, Home Depot ect.) You need to figure out if you need a 3 or 4 prong dryer cord. We do sell dryer cords you can contact me if you would like me to add it to your order, although we do not sell the venting.

I don't see any reason why not. This just adapts the prongs and has nothing to do with downstream ( what you plug in) appliances. As with something that requires so much wattage... you might want to check and see if the wall socket has a GFI on it in case that gets tripped, should your hair dryer GFI not trip.

No. Just make sure your computer has 220 volts. If not , you need to get a converter to plug in to the 3 prong plug and then plug your computer into the converter.

No, it won't, this is for a 110V lower wattage appliance. True, the plugs for 110V vs 220V appliances are different. This works well for a regular grounded plug/small appliance, but you have to check the watt limit for the plug and the appliance. The thing about a dryer is it is almost always 220V (V for volts), regular small appliances are 110Vs. An electric dryer or stove uses alot of electricity, and it must be plugged into a higher power 220V outlet, this switch works only with lower power 110V appliances and outlets. Confusing, but important...

it has a 20 amp plug where your dryer has a 30 or 40 amp. they are not the same.

Cord converts from the round (L-5) 120 volt socket of many generators to three standard three prong plugs. Very convenient if you need to plug two or three things into the generator during a power outage.

No.Standard dryer outlets are 30 amp rated outlets (usually). This cord is set up for 50 amp outlets.

No I haven't and have had no reason too. You could go to Home Depot and ask them (electrical dept) the question (no I don't work for them). I myself dought it can be done as the whole electrical system might have to be changed. I do know that small electrical appliances like a hairdryer, etc can be with a special adapter.

The wall receptacle has to be one called a 6-20P type that you can buy at Home Depot. It s not the same as an electric dryer.

2 prong plug can be connected to the top of the adapter and a three prong or another 2 prong can be connected to the opposite side with universal plug. Please make sure that your hair dryer supports 220V before using it with this adapter. This adapter doesn't convert voltage.

Washer yes, Dryer if it's 115v . I've not actually tried it but based upon the Amps avail it should do the job.

There is NO single standard electric dryer 240v outlet. If your 240v outlet looks like this, then no extra cord/adapter required. Leviton 5461-W 20-Amp 250-Volt NEMA 6-20R, 2P, 3W, Narrow Body Single Receptacle, White

Yes, I think so. There is a different plug which came with sets and you can switch the head of he plug depending on where you go ( different country ). Also, there is a switch on the dryer body, so you can turn to the different " Voltage ". I am using this products over 25 years. I use everyday and it will last more than 2-3 years. It is very nice ! I never go to any American product.

You would be better off the changing the two(2)prong outlet for a three(3)prong.for ground protection.And for a two or three dollars investment,you will be safe

There's only one cord. You need the large 3 pronged socket like any dryer needs. / _\
