Hi guys, i bought an infrared heat lamp for curing paint/lacquers etc but when it arrived it had no mains plug on it. It has only 2 wires coming out of it neither marked positive or negative with connectors that look strong enough for a car stereo speaker let alone a 500w 240v heater. It also came with absolutely no literature so I'm really in the dark on this one.
Can anybody advise on how I could wire this up to a mains lead so I can use it?
I've included pics sorry they are a bit hazy (on iphone).
I'm thinking just wire the 2 wires to the negative and positive of a generic 13amp mains lead and see if it fires up. But I'll wait for advice before I do this.
