[GreenKeys] Teletypewriter with Harris

[E.]

More than likely the fuse is blown (cutting power to the plugs)… you’ll want to keep that fuse good just in case :) (get a new one).

So, I opened the bottom and found this very old 'power strip' looking thing consisting of three 'gang' boxes all hooked together in parallel with some kind of what looks like a fuse. I tested the plugs and there was no power.  So I bypassed the power strip and plugged the power cord coming from the teletype above directly to my extension cord and it turned on. I could here a motor humming!  So, obviously, that antique power strip or whatever its called needs to be upgraded."
