The 3 outlet prongs on the back of the timer that go into the wall...are they at the top or the bottom?

It is at the top. But somewhat difficult when adding more than one thing to an outlet.

They are on the top half of the unit. You can still use the top of the wall receptacle while the unit is plugged in.

It's more towards the top. The overall height is 3 3/8. The positive and neutral are 3/4" down from the top and the ground is 1 1/4" from the top

You plug it into the TOP outlet and the bottom outlet is still available. Plug it into the bottom outlet and it will COVER the top outlet as well. FYI: We use this to turn off a major appliance during PEAK times .. it has worked great and without fail.

on the plug I have when its plugged into the lower outlet the top one is still usable for a standard plug, as for protection a dishwasher not sure about that.

The inlet prongs are near the bottom. It could be plugged into the top outlet of a 2 outlet wall unit and it does not block the bottom outlet socket.

I can confim that the top 3 work with the top outlet and the bottom 3 work with the bottom outlet and that if you only have 1 outlet for some reason only 3 will work.

It has three prongs to be plugged in with a three hole outlet coming out the bottom. If you put it in the bottom outlet of the two in the wall, you should still be able to use the other as normal.

In order keep the other outlet free on the wall outlet, you have to plug the timer on the bottom outlet. Because one plug blade is wider than the other (polarized plug), you cannot plug the timer on the upper outlet upside down (because the wider blade will not fit into the smaller outlet slot).

The plug (3 prong) is close enough to the bottom of the timer, that if you put the timer in the upper outlet, it will not cover the lower one. However, I am talking about a standard over/under outlet, with the ground prong below the other two. Other outlets may not be as friendly. I have not found one thing to complain about with this timer. It even keeps its setting for up to a minute, I think, while you replace the batteries. Perfection may be impossible to achieve, in real life, but this timer comes very close. That said, it is not the only type I use, because there are others that fit their particular purpose, as well or better, and are cheaper.

the plug is on the top half. On the bottom half is a plastic "peg" which is designed to go into the third leg of a 3 prong socket. If your wall socket is single you could break off the peg. The peg does, however act as a balance for the item.

It may depend on how your outlet is configured. All of my outlets are horizontal with the two prong and ground holes facing the same direction. I have the Surge Protector on the right side (maybe your top outlet), and there is enough room for another three prong (grounded) plug to fit in the left side (maybe your bottom outlet). In your scenario, this is assuming that the third prong (grounded) hole is on the bottom for each outlet. Now if you are only plugging in a two prong in the other outlet, this appears to be a non-issue. Hope this helps!

It is on the bottom, in the left hand corner. It is sewn in so you cant unplug it from that end. I LOVE it. My clients LOVE it and comment on it every time.

its a three prong.I wouldnt recommend buying this unit. Its extremely noisy. It was a mistake on my part

Yes. Connections made to bottom set of metal prongs. Top ones are plastic, for alignment only.This assumes the usual household installation of the wall socket where ground pin is at the bottom.In commercial installations, the wall socket is often inverted so the ground pin is at the top.

You plug in at the socket on top that's perpendicular to where you plug it into the wall.

It's towards the bottom of the cord. We twist the bulbs on/off, as they don't get hot when you use the proper wattage. We still love them very much, use them every single day! Will be buying 2 more for our bedroom.
