Can the cord on an electric heater be lengthened?
Yes, but with a heavier gauge wire <<>> If the cord on an electric heater needs to be lengthened as a perminant feature then the whole cord should be replaced with a new cord of the same type and wire size. What this prevents is aquiring bad splice connections at the point the connection is made. Bad splice connections will create hot spots in the cable. If the lengthening of the cord is just a temporary fix, just use an extension cord. The extension cord should be the same wire size as the heater cord. Keep the extension cord under 20 feet in length.

Can you use a 120v cord that will fit a 240v socket the appliance is 240 and the cord is thick?
120v and 240v cords usually have different end configurations and will not plug into the different recepticles. However, if you changed the plug end, and the cord has the proper size rating, then yes, you could use the same cord. But, it also depends on the cord too. Most 120v cords only have three wires in them. One "hot one "neutral" and one "ground" wire. A 240v cord would have FOUR wires, two "hot" wires, one neutral wire, and one ground wire. Therefore, if you changed the voltage from 120v to 240 using a 3 wire cord, you'd not have a ground wire and that could be VERY dangerous. Note that occasionally a 240v device (e.g. some motors) will only need three wires (red,black,green, no neutral) and can be wired with a 120v cord if the cord is rated for 240v.
