Hi all,
I am attempting to wire an "extension cord" that will convert my welders 220 outlet to fit into a dryer style outlet. I know which wire coming out of the welder is the ground, but don't know which of the two hot leads are which or if it matters, as long as hot goes to hot? Any help. Thanks
Josh

There are two hot wires for a 240 volt outlet, and does not matter which is which.
