Have you ever noticed that if something is advertised as 'amusing' or 
'hilarious', it usually isn't?

Hello,

Assuming that a "genie" is a portable generator.

As these plugs are not fused and "logically" protected by a double-pole 
circuit breaker it's not that important, but the usual practice is to 
connect the phase (brown) wire to the right had side looking from the back 
of the plug.



Regards.







Looking from the back of the plug.
