I cannot answer your question but here is a link for you to check with the serial number if your projector is from before or after 1946.

Great ! I hope someone can give you the info about the supply cord. Some projectors have very unusual ones. I hope it is not the case with your machine.

A picture would probably help. If you follow the step by step instructions, it is not so difficult to post one on the forum :-)

We use in Belgium the same plugs as in France. The old ones had no earth connector so you can still find this kind of model for early apparatus. If your projector has the same size as the female plugs that were used before, you can try an old one or cut a "modern old type" like this one (I have no idea what you're using in Portugal, I know plugs differ in Italy and in the UK, I don't know for other European countries : http://www.leroymerlin.fr/v3/p/produits/fiche-electrique-femelle-2-poles-6-a-debflex-e29587
