If this plug is part of an external power supply, then there are 2 different configurations, depending on how the pins are located on the PSU. The result is that in the other configuration, the external PSU us plugged in 180 degrees different. Do you know if both configurations are allowed? ------ |N\ / | | | | | | | ------ | | low voltage output cable ------ | / \N| | | | | | | ------ | | low voltage output cable Kind regards, Kris Carpentier Regulatory & Approvals From: Silvia Diaz Monnier [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: vrijdag 12 december 2008 16:33 To: Carpentier Kristiaan; '[email protected]' Subject: RE: Argentina Power plug Dear Kristiaan, the plug in Argentina is similar to Australian, but not the same.
