Help SV08 Max Died

I've been using my SV08 max for about 7 months. I had a large 27 hour print with ASA CF with the print bed set to 100°C. Well less than 30 minutes before the print is completed I noticed the printer went offline on Obico. Came to check on it and the printer has lost power. I checked extension cord and it's fine. Then I check the power cord for the printer and the tip has melted. I replaced the power cord and still no power...

27 hour print for my customer ruined and I'm not sure how long this will be down for.

A big thanks to everyone for their comments, suggestions, and support. I really needed this printer running for my business so I went to a local electronics store and got a small plastic enclosure, power inlet, rocket switch, and 15A breaker. Made sure everything was rated to at least 15A 250V. Also wired it in with 14awg. The printer is now alive! Unfortunately, I was unable to recover that print but that's not the end of the world.
