Ed T said:If you're trying to make an extension cord; male plug on one end and female on the other to plug your lathe into then the extension cord re-plugged for 220 plugs might be a good solution if the insulation is rated for 220 which it should say on the wire. If it is an extension cord then using romex is probably not such a good idea. I seem to remember some code thing about extension cords not being used in lieu of proper hard wiring for permanent arrangements, but my memory may be wrong.
