Just last week I sent the same question to Elecraft Support.  The answer I 
got was yes, it can be, with two caveats.  First, be sure to leave the 4 inches 
of free air clearance next to the top (top as in standard orientation), and 
don't set it so that the LEDs are on the floor.  The orientation isn't odd, 
really.  If it is resting on its right side the power switch will be on the 
rear, but very near the top edge.  That's how mine will be, when it arrives 
this week --- I hope..

    Subject: [Elecraft] KPA500 installation on side?

    Can the KPA500 be installed on it's side? There are feet there. I want to
    install it in an RV and there is more room for wiring and fan air movement
    that way.
    
    A search did not turn up any answers.
