Default extension cord

It depends on what kind of pump you have.

If that cord is going to be submerged, I would contact the manufacturer
of the pump and see if they have the cord available as a part.

If not, you stand to get a serious shock from touching the wet cord
going to that pump.

I've never seen a sump pump that came with a cord
so short that an extension cord used with it would be
submerged. At least not unless the basement flooded
with a couple feet or more of water....
