Hey all,


Just want to run this past you guys before I go ahead and connect the transformer to the mains.


The wiring diagram on the transformer:



The red and orange wires are connected. I will then connect the blue and brown wires to the mains and leave the grey and violet wires connected.


Then the yellow and black are connected to the rectifier.





Now what is the worst that can happen if I wire up the transformer incorrectly, with a fuse from the mains. Just the fuse blowing and maybe a breaker tripping? Also which would be connected to the mains live and neutral?
Is the blue live and brown neutral? Does it even matter?


This may seem a bit silly, but my first time connecting a transformer so the reassurance would be appreciated :D
