We have a VOX AC100 that has a damaged power socket that is quite dangerous and nearly blew up the power at our recent gig. I have been to all the regular electrical suppliers in CT and can not find a replacement part.

The plug is a standard kettle plug, pannel mount, male with built in fuse holder. It is a square plug and most of the replacement parts I have found are rectangular or diamond shaped with just the plug socket and no fuse holder. Another one had a built in switch that is too long.

Has anybody got any ideas? I have tried Builders Warehouse, Brights, Zacks, etc. Perhaps an old cabinet with a second hand socket? Agents for VOX to request areplacement part? Anything?
    Hi Don just a thought

    A weedeater extension chord or a camping socket. No mess no stress. Just not sure if it will fit in the amp though :-[
      Mr T. Here may be able to help you, or at least put you in contact with who can? Tuerk music are the VOX distributers.

      Hope you get sorted Bru!

        RS components has quite a few types of IEC socket including the square ones, and they list the dimensions as well. Have a looksee.

              You are a star Psean. That looks exactly right and they are not too far away. I will measure the plug at practice tonight to verify but it looks perfect. Thanks a lot.

              To all the other responders, thanks for your efforts. Nice to see so many suggestions for someting I was about ready to give up on ever finding. I should have asked first before wasting hours and litres driving to all the places I tried.
                Cool ? Hope you do come right.
                  RS delivers too.. and rather quickly if you're in a major centre.
                  i have had next day delivery from them every time i order!

                  Anyways, Mr T could have helped you out as well as he's the Vox man ?
