No. It's "alternating current", so there is no + and - to reverse. Wiring something backwards just causes a shock hazard.

Is red or white neutral for electrical work?

In residential wiring the white wire is neutral on the 120 volt circuits. On a 3way circuit the red is the traveler and the white is neutral. On a 240 volt 3 wire connection the white & black are hot. On a 240 volt 4 wire connection the black and red are hot and the white is neutral.

What colours replaced black and red wires in electric plugs?

Black & White are normal for an 120 volt electrical plug. Red is used in a 12/3 wire which is used for a 3way switch setup. It is also used in a 240 volt plug. Black and Red are hot, white is neutral.

How do you hook up a water heater with red black and white wires?

Sounds like it is a 220-240 Volt hot water heater. The black and red are connected to the 220 volts supply and the white is connected to Neutral. At the breaker panel red and black connect to the 2-pole 220 volt breaker and white goes to the neutral bus bar.


How do you wire 120 volt 2 bulb 8 ft?

It sounds like you are talking about a two tube eight foot fluorescent fixture. Open the fixture up and you will find a ballast that has probably two yellow wires, two blue wires, two red wires and a black and white wire coming out of it. The 120 volt supply will connect to the black and white wires that protrude out of the ballast. Black ballast to black supply and white ballast to white supply.


How do you connect black and white wires to a 12 volt battery?

If you have a houseboat or an RV, the wiring is the same as a house. The black is the hot and it goes to the positive, the white is the neutral and goes to the negative. If you are not certain, contact the manufacturer of your watercraft.

How do you produce 120V lines from 240V lines without using a transformer?

220 volt AC current is achieved by having two 110 volt lines with opposite waves or phases. One line will be positive while the other is negative then they flip or alternate 60 times a second (60 hertz). When connecting a volt meter to each of these lines it will read 220volts. Connecting a volt meter from either line to ground will read 110. I don't know if your question is backwards, but in a home you shouldn't have any lines that read 220 volts to ground. In a business or shop there can be 240 volt lines which combined can make 480 for industrial equipment. If your 220 is an older style and only has two hots and a ground (red,black,bare/green) you can't make a 110. If your 220 has 2 hots (red,black), a neutral (white), and a ground (bare/green), you can get 110 from either of the hots (black,red) to neutral (white).
