White is "hot", black is "neutral"
and green is ground. Most of the screw
on plugs have a legend on them or on the package. Remember they are
designed for people who have no training to install.
I always thought that the "usual" color code for electrical wiring was
BLACK is HOT, WHITE is NEUTRAL, and green is ground. Am I remembering it
wrong? or is the PDP 8/e backwards from everything else?
'Course, if you soak them in WD-40 long enough, it might not matter.
