Best Answer: This is AC (Alternating Current) so it isn't positive and negative but hot and neutral. On a polarized plug, there is one wide blade and one narrow blade. The wide blade is neutral and the narrow blade is hot. The ribbed (white if there are colors) is neutral; the smooth wire (black if there are colors) is hot. So... hook the ribbed side to the wide blade (or white wire) and the smooth side to the narrow blade (or black wire). --------.
Neutral The AC wide prong is the neutral. An AC voltmeter measuring from narrow prong to ground should show line voltage; measurement from wide prong to ground should show zero. In a two-conductor power cord (and some three-conductor cords), the ridged side should be the neutral. In any light-bulb socket, the outer ridge should be wired to neutral.
