Tech/Engineering - Engineering (general) / key in socket
English term or phrase: key in socket
Me encuentro con este término en el siguiente contexto:

(amplifier user's manual)
Connect the 10 pin connector to the device ensuring that it is correctly oriented to the key in the socket.

Por lo que estuve viendo parece ser simplemente una marca de indicación de orientación en el enchufe, pero no estoy segura.

Aguardo su ayuda.

Desde ya, muchas gracias.

Explanation:
Es correcta tu apreciación.

'Key' en este contexto se refiere a una marca, una guía en la base del conector en la toma del amplificador; seguramente hay algo similar en la parte enchufable.

disagree  Vaddy Peters: The key is just a part of a socket that ensures the right connection of male and female parts. enchufe macho y enchufe hembra
