Unsafe outlet?
I have a small Klein Tool Tester that is showing "Hot/Neu. Reverse" when plugged into a nearby outlet. Would this outlet be safe to use for a couple of hours? Thanks in advance for any input....RT 210

Ditto - don't use it. Some ungrounded devices use neutral for the case. That's why the neutral blade is wider on those type things - to keep you from doing what you are asking. I suppose if you have some ungrounded thing with both blades the same width it wouldn't matter, but why take a chance.
