Need to run my 240 volt shaver from an inverter. Bought the socket to wire into the battery and the plug to wire into the Inverter.

When I queried the polarity of the plug/socket was told there is no standard. I am going to connct the earth (neg) to the vertical pin on the Plug/socket and the positive to the horizontal pin. This to me seems to fit in with 240vac plugs where the earth is the vertical pin.

Comments appreciated.
