Please look at: http://www.surplussales.com/Wire-Cable/HVWire-2.html
What you want is the top two pictures, male and female. Note they are
polarized - one leg is longer than the other. Unfortunately this
source is sold out, but this is the type of connector to search for.
If you decide to go for a single plug with a hardwired ground between
the amp and PS, have a look at the third one down on the left. That is
the one I use in my homebrews and it has been very satisfactory.
