What happens if you wire negative to positive?
What happens if you wire negative to positive? The electrons will need to flow from the negative terminal to the positive terminal through a copper wire or some other conductor. When there is a path that goes from the negative to the positive terminal, you have a circuit, and electrons can flow through the wire. What's the difference between a positive and negative wire? In the United States, a common two-wire ungrounded circuit has a red positive wire and a black negative wire. For a two-wire system with a negative ground, the positive wire is red, and the negative wire...
