Hi Paul,

No, that's an after-market replacement plug.

GE-brand to be exact, made in China.

I call them "Walmart specials" because that's where they're commonly found. They're overpriced and the pins are flimsy and bend easily.

Sven,
You sure that that's not the original molded plug that came on the pump, with the ground ripped out and half of the hot pin burned off? (the black one, not the yellow connector body)

Scott,
I'll back up Sven on this, I have one of those square-ish GE plugs around here someplace from quite a while ago... (If I remember right, I bought it for a late night repair from a grocery store) The U-ground pin broke off pretty easily simply from trying to pull the plug out of a paint-caked outlet!
Look where the person's thumb is, there's one of the screws holding the clamshell body together.
