Temperature controller sensor wiring

[beercus]

I am attempting to wire up this temperature controller into jiffy box to control a chest freezer.

I think I have the wiring worked out ( an electrician and beer bribes ready for a safety check.)

BUT the sensor has a red wire and a white wire. Does it matter which way they go into the controller?

Thanks

The sensor is a NTC thermistor, so it doesn't matter which way you wire it. Go nuts

Yup.......Just remember you only switch the active phase everything else just gets transferred through to your cooling/heating item...INCLUDING EARTH

True enough, but the sensor is wired into the low voltage DC circuit. So not really very relevant.
