can anyone tell me the correct wiring arrangment for the green spot thermal cut out switches on my tumble drier.i had them wired orange/orange and brown/blue but with my volt pen the whole carcase of the machine is showing live !! wondered if they should be orange/blue orange/brown. any help appreciated.

Wiring the switches back to front would not cause the case to be live!
Doesn't matter too much about thermostat wiring, the one with a green dot is a thermal fuse rated at about 130 Degrees and blows when the unit gets too hot, the other is rated at 105degrees approx.
The case is earthed so cant be live. Hope this helps
