Very Basic Wiring Question
Not really 911 specific, but it is for my 911...
Apologies, but can anyone tell me which part of a DC power plug should be wired positive? About to hard-wire in my Origin b2. Got a DC power plug to go into the unit and some wire, but don't know which part should be wired positive. Thanks.

I have no idea what an "Origin b2" is, but typically a white wire is positive and the black wire is ground.

Sorry, don't think my question is clear. But thanks for your reply Stephan!
I wish to simply wire up a DC coaxial power plug, but am unsure which part of it should be wired positive. I think it's the central pin. Anyone confirm?

I think the center would be the power and the outer shell is ground
