Does anyone know what type of receptacle is called 110 volt

Easter Island standard?

I don’t see it in the chart. A few that are close but no cigar.

Maybe?

I’ve seen something that uses that plug. Just can’t remember where.

Similar to a PC power plug.

Used in high availability computer server racks, servers have redundant power supplies with two AC feeds from two separate PDUs within the server cabinet fed from two different UPS supplies.

Walt, yes, spent 50 years in IT, 1969 thru 2019, going from monster mainframes with miles of large cables to server farms with all Fibre. Quite a change in technology in 50 years, worked on some old computers that had a few vacuum tubes but mostly transistors to todays ICs.
The last servers I installed had smart PDUs that were all connected via ethernet and could be monitored from a central PC workstation, could monitor, voltage, current and temp, could power down individual outlets or complete PDU, made it easy for UPS maintenance.

Have you ever worked on a vacuum tube computer that was submerged in Demineralized water?

No never, that must have been challenging. In Tech school had an analog computer that was all vacuum tubes, only used it never had to fix it.
Some of the senior Techs that I worked with had worked on the DEW and Pine Tree early warning Radar sites in northern Canada and had worked on all vacuum tube digital computers, one Tech told me to trouble shoot, first they turn off all the lights in the room and looked for the tube that was not glowing.

They were used on naval ships during the war. Somehow these relics managed to last all the way into the Cold War days. I remember them from school back in the 1970s, but I wound up changing my mind and converted over to submarines.
