Any ideas???
I'm voting for a grounded paddle plug.
Thats it!!! Looks like I should get them replaced. I read where someone called them suicide plugs. Not a good thing to have in a school. Any idea how expensive they will be to replace (ballpark)? We have at least five boxes of three plugs along the back wall of the stage.
Thanks!

Err, 1980?...By 1982, they were all gone.
incorrect?I believe the original Broadway production of Grease, which opened in 1972 and closed in 1980, has the distinction of being the last show on Broadway to use them.
A "full" stage plug was 50A; a "half" plug was 25A, and two could fit side-by-side in a full receptacle. Brilliant system actually, except for that exposed copper thing.... The stage plug was often used for up to 50 amps (or more - not sure) as I recall. ...
My memory is that Four Star was still putting them out on the smaller and lower-cost rentals until about 1982---but I could be wrong.
