Power steering pump plug?

Can the large 100 amp plug for the power steering pump go in either way or does it go in one way? The reason I ask is I just replaced my clutch and now when you turn the key to the on position you can hear the motor ramp up and pretty loud. Never did that before so I wondered if I switched the plug around and the pump is going the opposite direction. Reservoir is full and have bled the system by turning lock to lock. Please help. Thanks!

I'm pretty sure it only goes in one way.
