France, definitely.
I visited the plant and I had some CPC machines from that.
BTW: The plant was quite huge, but the floor space requirements were
reduced significantly when they migrated from ECL to CMOS.
However it was closed approx. 18 years ago. (I mean the plant, not the
office)

02 is Poughkeepsie. 51 was Montpellier. 83 was Dublin, 84 was
Singapore. I just saw a 8562-T02 with 78 as plant number which I m
guessing is Brasil. (The customer is near Europe / Asia border so that
surprised me.)

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Plant 02
As we know there is a field called plant number.
It is used in FC/FICON and in Coupling Facility definition, and it is a
part of machine serial displayed in HMC.
Example:
000 02 00 12345
(spaces added for visibility)
I noticed some z16 machine in Europe has plant 02. Previous generation
had 84, which was Singapore, AFAIK.
I was told the 01 is POK (Poughkeepsie).
So, what is 02?
