Hi Siarhei, I believe that this questions that you pose at the end of your post are most simply answered by pointing you towards the FE_NedelecSZ <https://dealii.org/current/doxygen/deal.II/classFE__NedelecSZ.html> class. In the introduction to that class you will find information about how it's implementation overcomes the orientation issue for edge and face-based basis functions.
I hope that this helps.
