Replacing Spa Heater

Hello,

I am attempting to replace my spa heater myself. I've done research and watched a lot of videos. The new heater came with cables that go from the element to the circuit board and says to replace the copper straps. There is one blue wire and one black wire. It doesn't say which goes where and I don't really see any marking on the board that differentiate. I'm thinking maybe it doesn't matter, but if that's the case, why are they different colors? Any input?

240V circuits do not have a polarity. The power wires can be connected either way.
