Hello,
This topic was rehashed not too long ago, but rather
than read 6 weeks worth of thread on it, let me star it
again.
I have a PSU, the input leads (part of the EMI filter
I think) are labeled L, G, and N. G is I am sure, the
ground.
<USA>
Correct.
</USA>
Of N and L (beutral and low?), which goes to thewhite
wire, and which goes to the black wire?
<USA>
Black = hot
White = neutral
The neutral is bonded to ground (at only one place in the service) and the
black is generally the A phase of a 120/208v or 120/240v 3 phase system or
the A leg of a 120/240v single phase system.
</USA>
I've been thinking about a FAQ to cover this, but it's sooooo localized that
I spent more time writing disclaimers that I never got very far into it.
Any non-us electricians want to compare notes, and make it sound like we're
well traveled?
The A/C cord is a 20amp type with the two blades at
90 degrees to each other as in "| -".
I can't recall which is the hot and neutral offhand, but you should be able
to ring it out with a meter. Be careful. Ask questions first, as opposed
to never!
Thanks,
