Older Tektronix equipment uses a number of different types of line power sockets:

Twist Lock

Seen one on a 549 and a 067-0596-00. 180 Time Mark Generator also had this type of connector.So do some Tek 650 series color monitor. Matching Part (Male) from Hubble is HBL7484. Was this available as an option on some models? This appears to be a Non-NEMA Hubbel Midget twist-lock connector. Catalog page
