Wel no fire code or even electrical safety standards mention the orientation of plug. Hospital codes are the one exception

Chicago--a city very paranoid about fire--has some relatively unique fire codes, like all electrical wiring in a structure must run through conduit, and outlets are either typically, or are required to be, installed horizontally.
