Sorry, I'll stick to the good old BS1363 13A plug :-) # Just to get back to the topic and add an American point of view: The Exidy came with a detachable plug with two round pins, and with slots on the body where the ground attached. Obviously, this could not fit in a flat socket, but must require some sort of deep socket (I have no idea what you would call it). Here, I just attached a standard "3-prong" plug, the two flat prongs are 110 VAC, the round is ground. The power supply now works fine (thanks to Pete diagnosing a bad voltage regulator). We are still working on other problems. Louis
