Having just increased my collection with a VAX

on a minor problem.
The mains connector into the H7874 PSU is a normal IEC connector with
one exception.
Directly below the middle pin is a rib or ridge that would require a
groove or slot in the
mating free connector.
Before I start hacking up cables does anybody recognise this plug.
It's one of the three standard IEC power connectors; I don't
recall the IEC number for that one offhand. Over the years I've
developed a reasonable stash of them, but in a pinch I've taken a
knife to a standard IEC power cable and made the appropriate
notch...that trick works fine.
