I heard that a transformer can be wired wrong at the factory. Could someone please teach me how to test the wires of the AMI T13 transformer...

...to see if the wiring is correct according to the spec sheet?
How about the following procedure:
1. Measure the resistance across the yellow pair of wires (Yellow 1 and Yellow 2) by connecting one of the test leads of the multimeter to Yellow 1 and the other test lead to Yellow 2.
2. Measure the resistance across the black pair of wires (Black 1 and Black 2) by connecting one of the test leads of the multimeter to Black 1 and the other test lead to Black 2.
3. If the resistance measure in step 1 is greater than the resistance measured in step 2, then the yellow pair of wires should connect to capacitor and ground. Otheriwse, if the resistance measure in step 2 is greater than the resistance measured in step 1, then the black pair of wires should connect to capacitor and ground.
I got this procedure from someone who told me, "Measure the resistance of every pair of wires. The pair with the higher resistance should connect to capacitor and ground." That's all he said and he did not provide any details, like which pairs of wires is he referring to. Unfortunately, the guy is very busy and so hard to reach. So I took it upon myself to decipher what he meant and came up with the above procedure. Is this procedure correct?
Thanks very much!
