Seek Original Power Cord Connector for Player Grand
By Kenneth Gould
Hello all, I am restoring a 1920s player grand and, as usual, the
power cord is missing. I'm trying to find the female power cord
connector that mates to the male receptacle in my player grand.
The connector is almost like a standard two blade [North American]
connector but with the male blades both rotated 90 degrees. There
is a locking notch cut into each of the blades as well.
I called The Player Piano Co. and they said that Hubbell was the last
known manufacturer of the connectors. Hubbell stopped making them in
the 1980s.
I may have to change the connectors but I would like to keep things
original if possible. Does anyone know where I can get a new or used
connector? Does anyone have an old part number I can search with?
Thanks for your time,
Ken Gould
