I moved into a condo - the previous owner removed the 220volts ac box and plug for the stove - they taped the wires back  I bought a new box and cover for a 220ac outlet - I need to know what wires and what color's connect to what terminals in the new plug
Canadian standard - wire already connected to fuse panels

the plug should have some markings on it as to where the wires go, as long as you have the ground wire under the right screw it doesn't matter what screw the hots go under electricity doesn't care what color the wires are also check to see if the plug has a neutral screw on it
