sounds like mine. after one time, i learned to leave them alone.
around here plug orientation depends onthe inspector. one guy demands they be ground up, the next ground down, the next as long as the wiring is to code he don't care which way they go. we actually had an inspector try to fail our office because the outlets were horizontal instead of vertical. that is what happens when the ONLY qualification to be a government inspector is that you knwo someone that can get you the job. out of 6 inspectors here, the ONLY one with any background in electrical is the original iinspector who got the office setup back in 1965! the others take a test a baboon could pass, and it covers ALL areas where permits are issued here(building, plumbing, fences, decks, electrical, etc.). no dedicated inspector for any profession.
