Re: Ask EU: upside down three-pin plugs

Wow. Do you also cut your cables to length? So that they are _just_
the right length to reach your plugs, and no more? Or do you just coil
up the excess lengths of cables and bundle them behind the appliances
where their hidden disorder keeps you awake at night?

Nope take them as they come, the kids computers are still a mess behind
them.

Coiling up cables is not a good idea better off just leaving them in a mess

some of the cables on my hi fi are very thick so having the sockets upside
down means less stress on the cables
