Does this winch have a plug in for the receptacle or does it have to be hardwired?

It has a standard plug. Of course, I had to install an outlet where I needed it. I have had it 4 years and still works like a charm. Good luck.

It has a plug in. I wired an outlet in the ceiling right next to where I hung it and it works like a charm. It pulled a full grown bull elk up with no problem.

It has a built-in power cord that requires an outlet. The cord is behind a removable slot. There is an on/off switch that turns on the motor when the power cord is plugged in.

Yes, the plug comes attached. No wiring required, it is usable directly out of the box. The is no on/off switch, but for my use, I plugged it I to a power strip with an on/off switch.

It plugs in inside of the control box, right-hand side, that you installed onto the handlebars. It is a very poor setup as the cord gets in the way when peddling. That is the only negative issue I have with this machine.

It is hardwired. I believed it to be plug-in and had to return it. Hope this helps!

It needs to be hard wired. However, if you want to plug it into the wall you can buy a plug at a hardware store to convert it.

this PLUGS into the outlet... we have 30 amp and runs fine plugged in at all times.. (we do however turn off breaker when unplugging/plugging in to new pole...just in case. great replacement for our travel trailer

This unit produces the correct 12 volts from the 36 volt battery bank to power your winch. However, be careful of the output current draw required for winch. The voltage reducer is rated at 10 amps output, so any equipment current draw should stay under that value. You should find the current requirement for your winch on its paperwork or somewhere on the winch itself. Be aware that it will draw much more current under load. For additional safety, I installed a 10 amp fuse in line with my reducer's 12 volt output line. This should be a "slow blow" type fuse to allow for initial current surge often experienced with motors (such as my garden sprayer). I'd rather blow a fuse than burn out my reducer.

Being mounted outside it should be hard wired through sealtite to a disconnect or switch. Also would require a GFCI at the breaker panel.

It is intended to be hard wired, providing only short wire connections from the circuit board to wire nut on to. However, I suppose you could connect an extension cord to it and plug it in. However, the plug would need to be accessible per NEC, you cannot use an outlet/plug connection behind a wall or other inaccessible location.

It is hard wire. All you need it to get a plug at your local store and wire it in. Easy job to do, just extra cost for a connector.

I believe when I got it, it needed to be plugged in, but my contractor hardwired it.

Code will not allow plug in. It must be hard wired. That is very easy however. Took me less than 10 minutes to install. This is a 2 speed model, and very efficient. It is similar in design to a Hayward, but not exact. Seems to work well for the 4 months I have had it installed. Can't beat the price.

Yes Charles....the unit has a plug-in cord. It is not hard-wired into a receptacle.

It is hardwired. I wired it in a new construction home. It can be made to be a plug it, but you will need a little electrical skills.Hope this helps. The light is not as bright as you would think.

this unit has to be hard wired. no plug. i remove the old one and installed this one in it's place if you are handy, it is not a hard job. it really looks nice when it's installed.
