How to differentiate a hot wire from a neutral in a Canadian rangehood
I just bought a Canadian Rangehood (Cypress). The manual that comes
with the it doesn't tell anything on how to connect the wires. Out of 3 wires for connection, 1 green is for neutral. Then there are two white wires. One white wire has some letter printed on the insulation (such as 105C 18AWG etc). The other white wire has nothing printed on it. There is no WEB site or technical support number supplied on the booklet. I am guess the wire with prints is the hot one, and the other neutral. What the consequence will be if I connect the wire in that way when it is the other way around? I opened the junction box inside the rangehood. There were lot of wirenuts there for the 2 motor, 2 speed rangehood with lights. Each of those two white wires are connected to black, white, yellow, brown wires all over. |
