Telling the client the outlet has reversed polarity is generally enough. Hot and neutral reversed also works well.
Paul, I wouldn’t be so tough on this question, when I asked a very similar one 18 months ago less than 60% got it right, the explianation of the correct answer will help many people (members and non-members) understand the principles better.
Thats what its all about
BTW, I leave it to you to give the correct answer, and the priciples behind it tomorrow, deal? :mrgreen:

Reversed Polarity — I hate this way of talking about AC which changes polarity by it self. That is why it is AC
How about “Not wired properly”

Richard, I agree with you, but explaining why confuses the issue even more :mrgreen:
The point of the question is about understanding the real issues.

Ok Gerry

Richard the theory is not as important as the nomenclature.
Brian, I wish I could even spell “nomenclature”
Behind every Nomenclature… there is logic:mrgreen:

Edited…not worth it
