[GreenKeys] Hubbell Twist-Lock Help (evidently "Twist-Tite")

[Nick England]

I found a 1949 electrical supply catalog with the 9213 "Twist-Tite"
receptacle.
https://archive.org/details/MadisonElectricCo/page/n175/mode/2up?q=%22twist+tite%22

The catalog included several other styles of Twist-Tite receptacles (pages
174-175) but NO PLUGS. It says that these take standard parallel blade
plugs/caps and provide greater retention. Weird - have you tried a standard
parallel-blade plug?
Photos from the catalog are attached -
