    The hot pin of an IEC power inlet, mounted as it is on the RSP1068, and seen from the back would be the pin on the left. But, Swedish 230V power is unpolarized, not so ? In that case orientation would not matter.

      AFAIK it doesn't matter, the ground pin is not used (ground is usually tied to Neutral).

          Why only some amps have ground pin?
          by dvdchance
          just curious why some of the Rotel amps, 1095, have a third ground pin while others, like my 1075, don't?

          is the 1095 "safer" because it has the ground pin?

          RMB 1066: has the ground pin or not?
          by Locutus2k
          I was thinkin to add a (bridged) RMB-1066 to my 1095 for back surround channels and one more central (processor is 1098). I was wondering if the 1066 has the ground pin in the power chord or not. Can anyone help me?
          Thx,
