I have a questions for all the knowledgeable list members.
I have always installed standard three prong 110V outlets with
the ground "hole" on the bottom. It seemed pretty much standard
and universal to me. Now I'm working in a newly constructed,
large building, and all the outlets (except the sideways ones)
are mounted with the ground prong opening oriented towards the
top.
The question is; Is there a standard? Is there a "de-facto"
standard because it been the custom for many years? Or is it
random, and I never noticed?
