Well, not now that you've broken it apart. Why did you do this and why are you asking? Are you investing in this power strip company?

But really, what is your use scenario? What is the rating on the unit?

Probably because I'm paranoid when it come to electricity but this is what on the back 1456

if the power strip is upside down you absolutely should not trust it, the electricity will be reversed and might fall out.

You can use them upside down, just make sure to also turn it back to front and left to right so the polarity of all three phases are reversed.

I've spotted an alarming problem with this power strip. It's been manufactured upside down! With such low production standards, I don't know if I'd trust it.
