are the outlet prongs on this polarized?

The product picture shows polarized prongs, if you magnify it (hover mouse over the picture) you can see. Assuming this is an accurate picture, looks like the answer to your question is "Yes."

Polarized or not, they are unsafe for use. Please keep in mind that these little jewels only make a three prong device "fit" into a two prong receptacle. That little tab does nothing to provide a ground circuit should the device short out or otherwise fail. The whole reason for the third prong is to prevent an electric shock. These devices circumvent that protective element allowing the surge of current to pass through you.

There is only one way that you can plug in the light to an electrical wall outlet. I'm not sure what you mean by "forcing you to have the shade point down like my old GE nightlight"? The light that I have has the shade pointing up, that is, the wider base is on bottom and the narrower portion is on top. Hope this will be of help.

Yes, the prongs flip out on the back side to insert into a wall socket, and an adapter is included for car charging.

No, no polarity detector. You have to change the connection to measure charge or discharge currents.

The plug that I received had a three-pronged plug (for the plug that goes into the wall). So it had the grounding prong, if that's what you're asking about.

I can't answer, I threw them away after reading from a few reviewers that the polarity is switched (neutral and common wires are backwards.) I suggest you seek out an alternate item just to be safe.

Yes, the other outlet is left open for another grounded plug. The prongs on back mirror the slots on the front as far as placement is concerned, although stacking modules isn't advised.

The plug is not polarized because the appliance itself is not polarized. I think this mixer was manufactured long before polarized appliances became common. If your present cord will plug into the appliance either way, it does not require a polarized plug.

It should be. What I need to see is the outlet that it plug into. 90% they are.

A 2-prong polarized cord can be plugged in. Look at the pictures and you will see one! (A polarized cord has one plug bigger than the other. It is the common plug on new household extension cords and has been the standard for many years.)

yes I believe there is mine are passive/polarized and only works on 3 models of TV. Hope this helps.

It doesn't matter its not polarized. Its just a little metal ball that falls between both sides of the wire and completes the circuit.

Prongs being about ½ inch from top edge and about 1 inch in from each side. I have a picture if I can figure out how to upload to this site. I have had it plugged in for over a year with no problems.

I'm not home now to double-check, but I'm 90% sure this is unpolarized, meaning the connector to the appliance has 2 circular plugs as opposed to the ones that have a square and a circular plug.

No, the plug is not polarized. It can plug in either way. This plug is high quality and has been working great for the last six months for me! I use it daily.

If you are looking for wiring and connectors, the answer is no. The outlets terminate in standard spade lug connectors.

As long as the heater plug is polarized (one wide prong, one narrow prong), there is no problem ... grounds are over-rated, not always needed. living in a "two-wire house with NO ground! yet still alive somehow ... retired electrician.
