I have a P/T in hand that has BOTH primary wires as black. Is there any way to determine which I should route to the fuse and switch? It's an older Weber, and the wiring diagram I received with it shows the black as being correct for the age....thanks all, much appreciated.

Connect the black to the switch/fuse. Connect the other black to the power cord neutral.

Sorry Sluckey, you've got that the wrong way round. It's actually BLACK that goes to the Switch/Fuse, and the OTHER black that goes to the power cord neutral.

What, you just said the same thing as Sluckey said..!

So if I read you right, it doesn't matter in this case, correct?

transformer don't care.
you just need to make sure the power from the wall is wired properly (line/black to fuse then switch then transformer, neutral/white to transformer)

I had it right for the U.S. You must be thinking about the U.K. wiring. :wink:

if i remember correctly, uk amps with an attached power cord must switch both line and neutral
