Yea, with AC white is neutral green or bare is ground and other colors are live. Usually black is constant and red is switched when it comes to a wall outlet. Thanks for the help guys, if I had realy though about the fact that the red is paired with the white and that the red is usually switched I probably would have been more sure of myself but it's probably a good thing I asked anyways. It sure makes me feel safer anyways! |

What about American cars? Don't tell me black is live in them too?? |
