I use those power cords that are used for computers. I have a large box 
of them at work. EVERY darned computer peripheral made comes with 
one, and when the stuff craps out, I keep the power cords.

You have to be SOMEwhat careful in selecting them, since the wire 
size (current carrying ability) varies.

Also, most I have use the European color coding for the wires. I.e., not 
black, white, green, but blue, yellow, and green.

I cut the female ends off and install them. Most are at least 6 feet long, 
and have a very nice molded-on male end on them.
