Pool pump motor

Our pool pump motor plug has been replaced twice because when you try to plug it in it sometimes sparks and other times gets so hot it fusses to the outlet. Is this cord not grounded inside motor? Or any other suggestions? The pool is inground the pump brand is Lomart 1 hp & the motor is a baldor industrial 1 hp. We have tried different grades of extension cords as well this has not corrected the problem. Help!
Thank you,
KC
