[GreenKeys] Turn & Pull Twist-Lock power plug (LPR, LPW)

[Ralph Mowery]

I am glad someone asked about the plugs.  I have a couple of old FAA amplifiers that use the same type of plug.  I have not looked hard, but have been keeping that plug in the back of my mind to find some.  I have one and also have one that is similar but  the center pin is much different.  To use it, I drilled out the center pin as I only needed the twist lock pins.  However that left it without the safety ground wire.

I now have the number and places to look for them.

 

Looks like Hubbell would put the model number on their plugs.

Wayne is correct. The same plug is also on my Western Electric 911A

Teletype test set.

It seems Ma Bell used that particular plug a lot.
