Because there's the rule that each 90 degree bend consumes 10cm of extra length, this adds 20 to the 20 cm to the vertical distance you already had. Take again 10 cm extra per end because of the plug's ends which are extra stiff.
Are we at 50cm now ?
Bzzz

Thanks Peter,
That sounds like 60cm, but if I really wanted to keep them on top of one another, I could add a couple more 90° bends (if the attached picture displays), 100cm should cover it.
Presumably it wouldn't exert much upward force on the upper unit and as you didn't comment on the shrillness, that presumably is not an issue.
Please tell me if I am missing something here (like kinks break the cable).
Best regards
Roger
