I have a three wire cord with a three prong plug on the end sometime called a pigtail. I see the center wire is green which goes on green but which of the other wires goes on black and which goes on white? These wires are not color coded but the exterior cover has one wire which is ribbed and the other is smooth.

Can you install a 220 V baseboard heater at an electric range outlet where an electric range will no longer be used and Can a range pigtail be connected to the wall anchored heater and simply plugged?

Yes, I see no reason this couldn't be done. But first, make sure the current drawn by the heater is 80% or less than the rating of the circuit and outlet. As for connecting a cord to this heater, that, too, should be a simple matter. I would look for what we call a knock-out, which is a hole punched but not yet removed from the area where electrical connections are to be made. You will need to buy a NM cable connector large enough for the cable. If there is no knock-out or if it is not large enough for the connector you need, you can hole-saw a hole to the size you need. If there is not room to do this cleanly then you should contact a competent electrician for more specific advice.
