    Are 135 degree plug wires the same as 45 degree?

    I have looked around and I see a lot of "135 or 45 degree whatever you call it". Are they the same or not the same?  Thanks

    Yep, the same.  It just depends on which direction you are measuring from.  145 + 45 = 180

    Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.

     Just seeing if you were paying attention...  Shoud have been 135 + 45 = 180  Whichever you call them, they are the same angle.
