correct wiring?

hi,

hoping someone can answer what may seem a simple question (not to me)..
ive just bought an old viewer for 8mm film.. anyway, it has the old british plug..
i need to put a new plug on but I am not sure of the correct wiring.. It has red, green and black wires

Is this correct?
Live = Red
Neutral = Black
Earth = Green

yes, thats correct. Dont leave so much of the conductor exposed as in those pictures though. Would suggest having the appliance tested before you use it though. Dont know if a PAT test would reveal any faults in it - perhaps someone else can advise . . .
