Electrical Question

[CBadDad]

I'm installing a new dishwasher. I pulled the old electrical cord off of the old dishwasher but didn't pay attention to which wire was black and which one was white. :hammer2:
Is there a way to tell by looking at the cord?
This is what I have.

The green is ground and I don't figger it matters which is black or white. Just hook um up an it should work. I don't know sh** but I've sure zapped myself enough times! lol

Once you have it going make sure to check the rotation.Make sure it isn't running backwards.

They make special high temp whips (cords) for hooking up dishwashers dishwashers otherwise heat will cause it to deteriorate over time. If your outlet is right side up and wired correctly the wire on the left (wide slot in outlet) is neutral (white) and the one on the right is hot (black).
