[Healeys] Black to Earth or to Positive

[Patrick and Caroline Quinn]

G'day

 

In a couple of weeks we are heading in the BN3 to the Australian National
Rally half way across the continent and will be taking our Tom Tom GPS thing
with us. 

 

The Austin-Healey is still positive earth and I have bought a dual power
socket to fit hidden away behind the dash. 

 

The socket has black and red wires and an inline fuse in the red wire. The
case around the socket is plastic and therefore insulated.

 

I figure that all should be okay if I connect the black wire to the power
source and the red to earth.

 

Any thoughts on this?
