See
"www.aetherltd.com/refurbishing15.html". Scroll down to  "Wiring",
to the table which says "The usual external connections are". Note
the simple tests under "Notes" to make sure your machine has
standard wiring.

All three Model 15 manuals (Description, Adjustments, and Parts) are
here, as PDF files:
