Line cord wiring and polarity

On a round cord the black wire is hot (to the brass screw on the plug), white is neutral (silver screw) and green is ground (green screw on the round pin). On a flat two-wire cord the ribbed side is neutral and the smooth side is hot. The hot side is the one switched by the power switch. On a two-prong wall plug the narrow blade is hot; previous rewiring may have reversed things, so check before relying on it.

The power cord, main fuse, on-off switch, transformer primary and service outlet carry 110-120 V line voltage, which can kill. Unplug the game first.
