I have a MicroVAX 3800 in really good shape that I
would like to be able
to use, but I have a problem. The power connector looks like a standard
grounded power cable connector, but has been made in such a way that the
power cable must have a notch on the top in order to plug in. Is there
any reason for this?
Sounds like an IEC-320 C16 inlet, which AFAIK is just a high-temperature
(120C) version ofthe more common C14 (65C). I don't have a copy of the
IEC-320 standard handy, but if you do a Google search for "IEC 320" you
can probably find some reference charts online.
