As far as I know, there is nothing illegal about installing a

That would make most power strips a bad idea, no?


Mounted flush, right side up, they probably are a bad idea. Of all
the power strips I have, I don't believe any have the outlets facing
upwards.


I have outlet strips with outlets on three sides. You would have to mount
it upside down or hanging to comply, and isn't designed to be mounted.


You really do like octopus wiring! Got a link to one of these
killers?
