I've ordered a bridge rectifier to resurrect my onan. I see the good documentation on the photo site but I'm not sure how to tell the terminals apart.

The original has a "-" sign on one terminal and the new one has a "+" sign on one terminal. Other than that I can't tell up from down. The original could be inserted in any orientation -the new ones must have their pins bent to fit in the connector.

Frankly I'm not really sure what a bridge rectifier does except that it's a bunch of diodes. I sure would appreciate some sage advice.
