Totally. Just like wiring up a lighting fixture.
Well.. since we're all being very anal in this thread, not really..

Lighting fixtures are usually either hardwired or plug in, since hardwired fixtures are meant to terminate in some box. If the fixture is a plug in you can't really just cut the plug off and run the cable to a receptacle and make it hardwired, at least not easily in compliance with code. Only Romex and in wall cable is approved for behind walls, and lamp cord/regular extension cords run behind walls are against code.

In the case of this disposal, I think you can remove the bottom metal plate (which acts as the box), undo the wire nuts to remove the plug, and wire nut the romex (or bx) connections onto the disposal and replace the metal plate..
I do not know what romex is, but I like ramen.

I'M FAMOUS!

It looks cheezy but I am really happy with the way Jason used my comments and stand by what I said.








Those of you who expressed interest in the class before should have received an e-mail from Jason with that link by now. If anyone else is interested, I have a 40% coupon code ($299 instead of $499) for the course. Just ask...

That's what I did, mine was hard wired, so I just installed an outlet. Its pretty simple.

This isn't the thing that leaked and ruined your basement, is it?
