I have a hard wired 3 prong electric oven that has just been disconnected.


+++++++++++ How can I extend this wire so it is easier to reconnect the wires?


There is virtually no room to maneuver in back of the oven to reconnect the wires.

mpkjhk09 - HERE in tn . You could put a square box ,anchored and your wires put togreather inside the box and use wire nuts and tape them and hook up the ground inside the box also, but carry it along with the other two wires . NOTE ( YOU MUST HAVE THE BOX LOCATED WHERE IT IS Accessible > BUT YOU NEED TO CHECK WITH YOUR LOCAL ELECTRICAL CO. AS to what their elect. Code calls for , just go in and talk to one of their engineers ) STAY SAFE ;; Good luck and god bless ;; F.B.E.
