I remember a
couple of months ago there was discussion on
the proper cable for a BA440 power supply (normal North
American three prong power cord but with a notch where it
plugs in to the power supply). Was there a consensus on
the designation (and any place in the US that sell them)?
Our HP 9000/832 uses such a cable, too. They're not entirely uncommon, but
if you haven't got one, why not just carve a notch into a common cable?
Because I want to make sure I use a cable of the proper rating. Just
because a cable is thick doesn't mean the wirees are thick. If I get
the proper cable I'll have one of the proper rating. Right now I'm
using a standard cable I've carved with a notch, but without striping
away the insulation I won't know the thickness of the wires.
