This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

USA plug should be flipped. The ground should be on top.

Not really. Most plugs I see have ground at the bottom and there's no official standard for orientation.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

Yes, except all bulky plugs are designed for plugging into an outlet with the ground at the bottom.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

No. Ground is on the bottom. Almost always. Unless it's sideways.

Then just take it out and flip it around. It's not hard. Just turn off the the circuit at the junction box first.
