Hi guys,
I am looking for a fairly esoteric cable for my Brüel & Kjaer 2423. In
the back it has a 2.9 cm diameter hole which is maybe 1.5 cm deep,
with two rectangular blades that are 2cm long. They're the kind that
are panel-mounted and might have turned actually, but currently they
are in an exact NEMA-1 configuration, down to the milimeter. So I
think this is a receptacle for a NEMA-1 extension cord, which should
plug in and provide power. Except the wall plug should be a Schuko..
and the cable should be rated for 230V of course. I think the plug
might look something like this:

except there's no ground lug, and the two lugs are centred, not
shifted up. So maybe a little more like this:

I would be thankful if anyone had a tip.
Also, I wonder if a cheap alternative could be a simple rectangular
NEMA-1 plug, like those Korg cables. Maybe the actual plug was
rectangular, but a circular hole punch was used for ease of
manufacturing.
Are any NEMA-1 plugs rated for 230V?
Cheers,
D.
