Well, what do you know ... Elecraft has the 240 V cord option on the price
list.

I had not seen that item before.  Is it new?

What is the length of this cord?

And in case I wasn't clear on my initial posting ... if you want a KPA500
but don't have a 240 V outlet, don't worry.
This amp works splendidly on a 120 V line.  25 or 30 watts drive easily
yields 500W out, the thing is loafing.

The main reason I use the 240 V line is because I already have the outlet
from my old tube amp.  Might as well.
Frees up the 120 V outlet for another wall wart or something.
