I am having trouble identifying the socket type of the power connection on an old voltmeter I purchased. It did not come with a cable, so I am trying to find a new one which will fit in the socket. It has two pins near the bottom of a circular hole, and a plastic ridge at the very bottom for alignment.
Electronic – What sort of power socket is this

It doesn't look radically different from a Bulgin 5A connector from the UK, 1950s/1960s era, e.g. Nos 1,2 on this page, though without the ground pin. Often used on valve amplifiers, Leak and others.
Of course, without detailed dimensions, one can't be sure, but might be worth a closer look.
