Which way to connect A.C. for drill? Does it matter?
In UK, I have a cheap NLH710HD variable speed mains drill (710W). The brand is called "Performance Power". The power cord broke. So had to be replaced. In UK A.C. is 240V, 50Hz. A.C. connects to a FA2-4/1BEK speed controller; to points labelled: 1 and 3 on the speed controller. But which gets the live and which the neutral? Does it matter?
Here is the diagram on the FA2-4/1BEK. The 2 black wires at the bottom go to a 0.22 micro farad capacitor.
