Not this crappy Chinese from ebay:)

Yes! Those look like the right ones, in the newer-generation light gray.
Upon closer inspection of the zoomed-in image on TME's site, there are subtle differences from the genuine ones, but it's very close. Good find.

I wonder who makes them. The only other place I could find them is Amazon France.

You can find the "gray with colored trim rings" type binding posts on ebay. They are hard to filter because there doesn't seem to be a standard way of describing them. I have bought from a couple of different sellers and the items received appear to be identical. The quality is fine. The metal post is not cross-drilled. The gray color I received is only close*. The lightness is similar to the Agilent, but is of a slightly browner shade, more like the HP color. If you are really picky about the color match, you would probably want to buy a matched set from Keysight. The last time I checked was about 2 years ago, and the cost was nearly $50 for a set of three.

* point being, you are not likely to get a perfect match as the color probably varies a lot from batch to batch.
bitseeker:
The ones on eBay that aren't cross-drilled have a very large, donut-like colored ring, quite different from the thinner, hard-edged HP one. However, it would be the next in line for similarity after the TME ones. So far, TME has the best reproduction as far as ring color & size, fluting on the post, and coving on the base.

In the past, I too saw the binding posts for sale on Keysight's Find a Part. However, when I checked last night they were no longer listed, not even as NFTS. :-//

Hi,

here are two of my PSU:

- a Rohde & Schwarz NGB 70 / 5 --- 0 ... 70V and 0 ... 5A

- from the famous german electronic magazine elrad a dual power supply --- 0 ... +50V and 2,5A & 0 ... -50V and 2,5A
  elrad November 1985
  Schematics can be found here: https://www.mikrocontroller.net/topic/183517
  The PCB was designed by myself last year, because my first attempt was really ugly  ;D (ok, this was back in 1989)

That Elrad is mighty tidy inside. Nice job!
