Half hot switch wiring
Does it matter which way the switch is wired, wiring 1 or wiring 2?
The circuit works the same either way.

They are both the same, as long as you want both outlets to be 1/2 switched and you remove the jumper between the terminals. A single pole switch doesn't care which direction the power flows through it. A 3-way however does care.
