so the wiring should be like this....

Red => White
Black => Black
Green => Green

Dudeman correct me if I am wrong as well.

No mate. You are incorrect. It is the Live that is always on the switch and runs across the fuse. So the plug I sent to JaveryH, the RED is LIVE and therefore runs through the switch and across the fuse.  :cheers:

Kaytrim:
I guess my wires were crossed. ::)  Thanks for the clarification Dudeman.

TTFN

Dudeman:
Just so we are all on the same page.

"Can someone tell me if I wired it properly?  I went green to green [ground - I'm pretty sure about this], black to black [negative] and white to red [positive]."

Going on this statement:

Green to green is correct.
Black to black is WRONG. It should be black to red.
White to red is WRONG. It should be white to black.

Its all good.

It would be much simpler if we all had the same wiring system huh?!

Im in New Zealand BTW, not OZ. Fffttttt.

We have it right. RED = HOT. Kinda makes sense ie Red Hot. Do not touch. BURN!  >:D
                           BLACK = NEUTRAL. Its, well, Black. A nothing colour. Neutral in fact.
                           GREEN = EARTH. Just like the green grass outside. Maybe not in the US?   :laugh2:

JAVERYH. Hurry and finish this thing already.
Oh yeah, you have 23,000+ views. Impressive man.

Dudeman.

I concur that the pic you posted is right.

All in favour, say 'I'
