Well, had a look at mine. Still got to sort out the pics I took, but the
contact with the "hook" like edge that is bent in 90 deg. should be
ground. The other two contacts should be brass and silver colored. The
brass one is hot, the silver is neutral. If I can find a place to stick
the pics I took up, you can see the breakdown of my 4D/310VGX (still in
need of cleaning). Oh, and on this machine, the power cable inside the
machine is shielded. The shield wire is crimped into the same terminals as
the ground wire.
