    Shop the two, it will be close and shipping charges (heavy wire) may be an issue.

    If that is the case, order the cords straight from Glenndenning with the ends molded on them. They come from Glenndenning in a 65' and 100' length, don't skimp on the length if you can fit the longer length in there (location and the size of your drum determine that). My price from Glenndenning was pretty reasonable, all of the times I ordered them. You also need to know if you have a 3 wire or 4 wire cord/system.

    Great info thank you. I don’t believe I have enough height for 100’ cords but will measure and confirm.

    Also make sure you get tinned wire. Much more corrosion resistant. I ve replaced glendining installed cavle that were not tinned

    Talked with glendenning, they do not have molded cord caps with 100 amp cord.

    Also beware that the Hubbel 100 plug doesn’t fit in the glend housing. I recently replaced one with a Marinco, much nicer design, which fits if you cut off the second clap. It is actually branded Menneke, made in Germany. Much better than the hubbell

    Call Wards, I got some white from them that had some blemishes really cheap, comparatively.
