Hello Bill,
RAL is a private German organisation
(RAL, Deutsches Institut für Gütesicherung und Kennzeichnung e.V. ),
which would translate into 'German Institute for Quality Assurance and
Marking'.
In their web-site (which is also available in English)
http://www.ral-colours.de/
you will find information regarding the coding system.
The 4-digit RAL Colours have been the standard for choosing
colours for more than 70 years now.
At the beginning the colour collection included 40 different colours.
Its number has risen to more than 200 today.
They also contain safety- and signalling colours.
Hope that helps,
mit freundlichen Gruessen/ best regards
