Polarity is the direction of flow of electrons throughout a circuit. There are two types of polarity: positive and negative. Postive polarity is of older circuits which means electrons flow from positive to negative. Negative polarity is of more modern circuits and that is the flow of electrons from negative to positive such as on car batteries

What are the 2 ways to find out which is the positive leg and which is negative - led?
On an LED, one leg will be shorter than the other. The shorter leg is the negative polarity.
Is the black wire on a lamp connection plus or minus?
The color of the wire does not indicate its polarity. In electrical systems, the polarity is typically designated as positive (+) and negative (-) rather than plus or minus. To determine which wire is positive or negative on a lamp connection, you would need to consult the manufacturer's instructions or use a multimeter to check the voltage.
