In a normal distribution system, one wire is always connected to earth. Reverse polarity occurs when the live and neutral conductors on a system become reversed or 'swapped over'.
It's a very dangerous situation with serious safety implications.

What happens when a microphone polarity is reversed?
it does not work
What are particles with reversed magnetic polarity?

A reversed polarity is when the hot and neutral are wired backwards?
Yes in AC circuits the terminology reversed polarity means the hot and neutral are reversed to what they should be. In DC circuits reversed polarity means that the positive and negative terminals are reversed to what they should be.
What are particles with reversed magnetic polarity called?

Can you get -5Volts as output when polarity is reversed?
yes.you can get 5v output even when the polarity is reversed. In a 5v battery, if u reverse the polarity, then u'll get the same 5v as output , but in the opposite direction.(i.e.,)-5v(negative 5 volt
When the Earth's polarity is reversed is the Coriolis effect also reversed?
No. The reversal of polarity is a reversal of Earth's magnetic poles. The Corilolis effect is a direct consequence of Earth's rotation and is not affected by the magnetic field.
On the real ocean floor alternating stripes of normal and reversed polarity are not all of equal width. What does this tell you about the lengths of time represented by normal and reversed polarity?
It would indicate that the length of time between reversals is not predictable.
How is a DC permanent-magnet motor reversed?
Reverse the polarity of armature windings of the motor.
How do you fix reversed polarity in a home inspection?
reversed polarity in an electric circuit, means whoever was doing the wiring had no knowledge of wiring. reversed polarity means that wires ( mostly on outlets) are incorrect. the black wire goes on the gold screw, the white goes on the silver one & the bare wire goes on the green screw. most home centers have a library of how to books. they average around $20.00 each.
