Not likely 3-phase for a Sequent.....  They're a bit too new.

I've got an old monster DEC RP03 in the garage though....  (and some
shielded 6-conductor power cables for it, though no way to plug it in :-)

That's what was in the townhouse I lived in before moving here.  It was
a fuse panel too -- no fancy breakers for us!  That place was built
sometime in the late 1950's, if not later.  It did have three-wire
(grounded) circuits, but many of the wall plugs were still two-prong.
