they certainly make a nice bang if something metal falls on top of the two conductors, if the earth is on the bottom.

I’m p sure you have to install it so the ground pin is on the bottom so the electric outlet looks like two shocked (electrical pun) lil fellas :o :o, it’s def in the NEC somewhere about the lil jokers having to look spooked
