I think what Mark Lloyd saw was that quad installed with 'HUBBELL' level on top..!


What I saw (and wish I got a picture of) was a vertically-installed
DUPLEX receptacle. The wallplate was straight up and down, but the
receptacles themselves were at an angle. The same angle with the ground
pin at about 30 degrees CCW of down.

Possibly this had something to do with cords having the cord connected
at an angle.
