Positive to positive? (noob question)

Tacitus
Go to solution Solved by ForsakenLive,

positive to positive. However you don't have to worry, you don't have a risk on damaging anything when connecting front panel cables, even if you miss the correct position you can always flip them and be good.

Hey everyone.

 

When connecting the + and - cables for the power/reset switch to the motherboard, do I connect positive to negative, or positive to positive?

 

Sorry for this really lame question.

For 1 way switches it makes no difference as all that it does is complete a circuit in order to actuate, you could place them either way around.

 

In other applications, when wiring it's generally positive to positive.
