1 Belden Non-polarized Original Vintage 3-pin Power Cord Electric Cable Pentron V-M 1950s Beige

This listing is for ONE original vintage power cable. First time back in stock since June 2023. We have only ONE of these left in stock, this one is the legendary Belden brand.  These vintage cables with molded rubber or plastic ends were used in audio equipment in the 1950s. Known brands include Pentron and Voice of Music. Center-to-center pin spacing is 5/8" for the active pins. Pin diameter is 1/8". The female plugs are approximately a rectangle with semicircular ends, 15/16" wide and 1/2" tall. I can't imagine the purpose of the 3rd hole in the female end, since it's not connected to either male plug and it doesn't even have a conductor present in the hole in the Phalo cord. It requires that the plug be inserted only one direction, BUT...it's a non-polarized male plug, so it won't guarantee any particular polarity! Weird.

Caution! There is a very similar 3-pin rounded rectangle cable (Belden's very hard to find PH163) that I sometimes also have in stock. This one is WIDER and it has WIDER conductor spacing. The PH163 actually has a grounded male end - this one has only two prongs on the male end. Be sure to measure your center-to-center distance on that machine!
