Outlet in back of Byte Shop Apple 1

Hello,

 

I am looking for the name or part number for the a/c outlet used in the Byte Shop Apple 1 computers (Plastic outlet inset in round metal mounting plate). I have been looking, but I haven't found any information on this part.

Hi John,

 

I had to take a look to be sure what you were referring to but it looks like a NEMA 5-15r flanged power outlet.  I haven't seen any with a metal flange like that in a really long time and I fear they might have gone the way of the dodo.  

 

I hope this helps,

Kevin

Thank you, @macnoyd. That

Thank you, @macnoyd. That looks pretty close to the original. It's hard to tell from the pictures available if the receptacle is flush mount or recessed on the Apple 1. To me it looks recessed a bit. I suppose that design will be harder to locate.

I think the orginal was just whatever the local hardware store happened to stock.
