IEC 60446:2007 Basic and safety principles for man-machine interface, marking and identification - Identification of conductors by colours or alphanumerics
This International Standard provides general rules for the use of certain colours or
alphanumerics to identify conductors with the aim of avoiding ambiguity and ensuring safe
operation. These conductor colours or alphanumerics are intended to be applied in cables or
cores, busbars, electrical equipment and installations.
