What do you call this socket?
Hi all,
I have a box of salvaged three phase sockets. They're pretty old and of an all-metal construction. I'd like to mount a pair on my phase convertor (when I've built it) but I don't have any plugs to match the sockets. They have 3 phases, a neutral and an earth, but I don't think they're CEE sockets. As far as I know the 3P+N+E CEE sockets have the pins arranged in a pentagon, whereas these have four pins in a square and the earth in the centre. There's an emblem made from an interleaved "M" and "L" on the front, and you rotate the plug to switch on the power. Here's a pictu http://www.mythic-beasts.com/~cdt22/socket.jpg Any idea what they're called? That way I might stand a better chance of finding some matching plugs. Best wishes, Chris |
