Hey all,

Just unpacked an order from Mouser last night. I had order a new 3 prong power cord for an old amp that I'm "updating".

I didn't get a chance to plug it in and verify what was what - but it has the oddest color configuration - brown, blue and green (with a green stripe).

I'll multimeter the thing to verify what's what - but I just wondered if anyone else has had this experience ?

What´s new with this configuration.... it is used in europe since decades....:
brown is phase, blue is neutral and yellow/green is earth.
