Im measuring voltage from a dc power supply after having a mishap with a neovibe (exploding 1000uf caps) My black lead is on the tip and my red is on the sleeve. When I reverse the leads my dmm reads + 27 volts. Negative -27 volts measured with black on the tip. Does this mean that my jack should be wired backwards for the neovibe (red tip, black,sleeve). I know this sounds confusing, but its the only way I figured that the caps would explode like that. This all started with a diode bridge installed backwards, that snapped a leg after I removed it. So I powered the neovibe up without the db, wired red to positive pad, black to negative pad where the bridge used to be and the big caps blew up consecutively.
In order to fix this I will replace the caps and switch the wires, is there anything else that will be damaged from the reversed polarity?
