Yes - the hot lead should always be the lead that is fused.
I don't always use the word "always" (or, for the record, "never"), but in this
case I shall make an exception...

A number of years ago I bought about four AC4's, and installed 3-prong computer
cords, with the ground attached to the AC4 chassis. I used the original strain
relief, but carefully cut some of the plastic out of the original, just enough
to accomodate the round cord. They all worked great. One thing I did not
consider (and I need to go back and look), is the hot lead of the AC cord being
on the fuse. I suppose for safety reasons I should have???

John,
As you suggested it would be easiest to just cut it off at the strain
relief and re-terminate inside. You will only lose about 6 to 8 inches at best.
