Amiga 500 line filter.

[Mr.Bitz123]

Hello,

I know this is probably a silly question, but is there a correct orientation for the line filter on the A500 motherboard.
Can it go either way ?

Thanks

first of all, i am not quoteable. not an expert. from what i read about the functionality, there is no orientation to line filters and you wont be able to find an orientation on the part itself.

just to make sure, i am not an expert, please dont fry your hardware because of me.

Thanks, but can someone give a definite answer who has built one of the reproduction A500 motherboards ?
I understand the line filter is passthrough but it is an inductor so just want to be sure it can go either way.
Checking continuity it goes through 1 pin and to the opposite side.
I just want to make sure I have the windings the right way.
