Our first M/home arrives next week and we've been busy buying bits of extras and accessories in readiness.
My question is (and I apologise for my ignorance here):
What constitues a reverse-polarity cable or detector?
I think it may be that, whereas the Live cable (Brown) is usually off to the right inside a UK plug (often under the fuse), there may be variations on this on mainland Europe. If this is so, even though we live in France, I always connect the brown wire to any electrical plugs I fit and there has never been a problem here even though there are also no ringmains in normal household elecrics.
I would sincerely appreciate any help and advice and, again, apologies for my ignorance!
Thank you and regards
