Know before you buy
Most modern homes built after 1996 are required to have a 4-slot dryer outlet. If your wall outlet has four holes rather than three, you need this 4-wire cord to ensure a proper and safe electrical connection.
While this cord is a Factory Certified Accessory for Whirlpool brands, it is a standard 30-amp, 4-wire cord. It will work with any electric dryer that requires this specific configuration and amperage.
No, installation is designed to be straightforward and can be completed with basic hand tools. You do not need to disassemble the dryer to attach the cord, as it connects directly to the terminal block on the back of the unit.
The strain relief bracket secures the cord to the dryer cabinet where it enters the machine. This prevents the cord from being pulled out or damaged if the dryer is moved, protecting the internal electrical connections.
Ring terminals provide a superior, high-contact connection to the dryer's terminal block. They are less likely to loosen over time compared to simple stripped wire ends, ensuring a safer and more reliable power flow.
