I have a Schaffner FN2030-10-06 EMI filter. I can see where it goes in the attached PDF. Note that it is the exact part number as in the diagram.
Tech specs are here:

The wiring diagram shows the EMI filter in line before the DC power supply. But the label on the filter clearly says N (DC-) and P (DC+) Load side and the same for the Line side.
Before I install this thing I want to make sure that I'm not going to let the magic smoke out by connecting it the the 240V AC line and load.

If you have a VOM I would test dc continuity between the input and output terminals of the same polarity. I'm guessing that it contains (at least in part) two series inductors. Kinda like the choke filters back in the vacuum tube era.

There's continuity between the line and load on each side.
