I am running into a problem with UL not accepting the Brown/Blue color code due to UL 2044 and The NEC stating that the Neutral must be white or Natural grey.
Has there been any updates to the NEC that allows the Euro Color code? -----Original Message----- From: Lacey,Scott [mailto:sla...@foxboro.com] Sent: Wednesday, April 05, 2000 4:48 AM To: Mavis, Robert Cc: 'emc-p...@ieee.org' Subject: RE: Mains Color Codes Robert, I have always found the European color codes (brown/light blue/green w/yellow) to be best for dual market use. UL and CSA seem to have no problem with the use of these. You will need to provide some kind of legend plate or tag explaining the color codes, as many U.S. electricians are still not familiar with these.

What are the allowable color codes for pigtails that come from a permanently connected apparatus to be connected to mains for US and Europe? Is there a color code that is allowable for both?
