will not work .. in the case 3 pin u must follow L-N properly, but in 2 pin devices it has in-built component to trans-verse the electrical source, if you still try change the polarity in 3 pin plugs, the ELCB will trip ..

QUOTE(ar188 @ Sep 18 2023, 08:26 PM) equipment should work, but shouldnt do it for human safety.. cos wall switch on/off /fuse is only connected to live side. "This is an answer for users of 230V in Europe. In Europe we have Live (brown) and Neutral (Blue). If you touch a neutral wire (not a good idea), then in theory nothing will happen. If however, you touch a Live, you will get a 230V shock (really bad news)."dont ever trust NEUTRAL point .. in some cases there will be "return" current in there too  |
