I'm new to this forum and am hoping you can help me with an issue. I have tried interpreting the NEC and OSHA on this issue, but electrical practices are not my strength. I have come to a conclusion, but am not sure it is correct.
Situation: There are welding machines are hooked up to main disconnects using flexible cords. The majority of cords are hard wired into machine and disconnect. A couple machines have a flexible cord with a plug and are connected to another flexible cord that has receptacle (quick connect) on one end and hard wired into disconnect at other end (pig tail?). This is inside a manufacturing facility, not at a construction site.
Question: Are these uses of flexible cords compliant with the NEC and OSHA? :?
Thank you so much.
