[QUOTE="Ben Bryant, post: 551010, member: 37604"] Hi all! Hope someone might have some words of wisdom for me....I have a piece of old hoarding from a fairground ride and was going to wire it up to a plug (and change the bulbs to led) but when I took it apart the wiring connector was wired as: Black: L1 Red: Earth Blue: Neutral Green/Yellow: L2 Which is obviously not what I was expecting to see. I can't tell if the person who wired it up originally just ignored the labelling on the connector of if they actually used Red as the earth for example....does someone have a keen eye for circuits and can tell from the way it looks what is going on? Many thanks, Ben[ATTACH type="full"]16172[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]16173[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]16174[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
