The original power cord on my 16b is missing the plug, but is otherwise 8 feet, 2 inches long. Brown, cloth-covered, hard wired to the chassis (i.e., no cheater plug).
I am making the replacement 8' 6" but still mulling the idea of a fuse somewhere externally on the chassis (for safety reasons).
The original cord was black and black-with-white-tracer.
Which is the neutral? From the schematic, it would appear to be the black-with-white-tracer and that the hot line is routed through the shielded cable (clever, that) to the on-off switch. True?
And, what did the original plugs look like?
