Pumps come with a 3' long power cord, with the standard 3 prong plug. This pump is ready to go when you receive it. Simply remove the pump from the box, open the cover on the debris basket, where you will find the gasket that needs to be inserted into the basket nut and then simply install the basket on the face of the pump. Reinstall your hoses from your old pump, connect them to the pool filter and simply plug in the pump. Be sure the pump is full of water before you power up the pump so that you do not burn up the pump shaft seal. Not self-priming, pump head must be below water level to prime.
