Is the red wire hot or common?
If wired correctly the red wire will be hot, but any wire can be hot regardless of colour if done incorrectly.
Why does ac power have a hot wire and neutral wire?
The hot wire carries current from the source to the electrical device, while the neutral wire carries current back to the source. This completes the circuit and allows electrical devices to function properly. The distinction between the two ensures proper functioning and safety in the electrical system.
When wiring a house do you have to use the black wire as the hot wire?
No, there are different occasions when the red of a three wire cable gets used as a hot wire. There also times when the white wire gets used as a hot but has to be re identified as a hot with marking tape. When wiring baseboard heaters the cable used is red and black with no white wire in the set.
What is the symbol for hot wire?

Which wire is hot on 110?
Generally, if the electrician did it right, the BLACK wire is HOT, and the WHITE wire is NEUTRAL. Meaning that the white wire is the center tap of the main transformer, and the black wire(s) are either leg of the 240 volt output. Since the hot to center tap only takes half of the 240, it ends up being 120 volts at your outlet.
