œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡ œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡ that says that one way is "upside down" and the other way is the

œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡ I have previously covered this priorly. The ground pin is placed in the

œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡ two-dimensional array of charge-isolated implosions that likely result
œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡ in total wire failure (or TMF as we certified electricians call it).
œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡
œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡œ¡ I hope the above helps.

now show us how to calculate a voltage potential between two conductors.

Thank you! We agree at least on that.

The only reason 99.5% of grounded receptacles in USA are
installed with ground pin down is because they kind of look
like a FACE - :- Install them ground side up, and to most
Yankees they look "weird". Many Americans have predilections and
stereotypes of what looks or is weird to them.

Yet my 20 year old Fedders air conditioner should have pin up.


No A/C plugs are made to assume the unit is mounted higher than the
receptacle so the cord is oriented up.

Yet every window in the house is higher than every recepacle in the house.


The cord goes up too, in the direction away from the ground pin.
On a washer, the cord goes down in the direction of the ground pin
.... assuming you install the receptacle ground pin down.

So one neurotic inspector held the entire town hostage? I hope someone forced him to go get professional help.
