It will work, but the jnext person working on it may get a surprise if they are careless. Then they may dance about and utter profanities.

If it is labeled line and load or the instructions indicate it, then do not switch them. If there is no mention, the two terminals/wires on the thermostat are the same, then it doesn't matter. Anything with line and load labeled should be followed that way.

No the type you are talking about is usually used to break the line. It would be best to put the wires on the same terminals as the old t-stat.

I would think so. The line is the power and load is the equipment or appliance. Switching might produce a faulty reading.
