ECN Forum Forums Code Related Discussion NEC & other Code issues Flexible Cords used on permanently installed equip

would the installation still be compliant if manufacture states the power connection on the back of the unit is meant for flex cord?

Im sure if the manufacture wanted they could supply the unit with a power connector that was compatible with hard wiring the unit. would it be better to get a hold of the manufacture and have them supply a different power cord or leave as the original installation?

Thanks for the reply
