    It will work either way, there is no polarity when a circuit is made.

    There is polarity before a circuit is made. One wire is live, one wire is a neutral return.

    For a basic heater, plugged in one way will have the heating element always live, and the other way it will only be live when it is switched on and a circuit is made.

    One is definitely safer than the other.
