I typed that in bed last night because I have been meaning to ask for over a year but kept forgetting. I even saw the plug this morning and thought "I must take a picture of that" but then got sidetracked. I will get full details this evening. Thanks for caring!

I had the same happen on my boss PSU years back on my guitar step and since it was a plastic earth prong, it had no electrical function. It was only there to move to the safety shutter so that the live and neutral can be exposed and allow the plug will go in. What I did was got a short extension lead and plugged in the psu after by moving the shutter in the earth socket on the extension with a piece of hard plastic, then taped the PSU in place so stays put. Be careful not to cover any vents for cooling. It's still there in my effects board and no problems.
