Powerpoint wiring question...

Can anyone advise which color wires going to the powerpoint are positive and negative. Will be splicing into these wires as a constant power source for a PIE adapter.

I advise you to pick up one of those cheapie test lamps with the ground clip and pointed tip to prod wires or get a multimeter. You're gonna need one anyway.

What he said, but the center is usually hot and the outer connection ground.
