the 2 halves to try and ensure that live is always connected to
live what will happen if I get it wrong ? Will the RCD trip, the
mower motor go backwards, loud noises and lots of smoke etc???

No, the mower will just go as normal, it doesn't matter which way
they are connected.

No it won't. If you connect it the wrong way it will put the grass
back down

I wish all my power tools had an "undo" button.
