Flying leads are acceptable, input filters use them often. It is the final termination that has the control. Crimp splices are not allowed, however crimp terminations (double crimp type for primary or hazardous voltages) and terminal blocks as terminations are allowed. I have never seen a flying lead this long but there are some requirements for length, I believe 3M is the longest for a wire run.
