what colour do you use for neutral in the new harmonised colours,
L1
L2
L3
L1
L2
L3
the letter doesnt have much to do with it... for me, its more of a colour thing. black just seems more appropriate as neutral than grey, so i use black. the fact that black is 'L2' and blue was 'L3', doesnt make any difference to mewhat colour do you use for neutral in the new harmonised colours,L1
L2
L3
my argument isnt about avoiding a conflict of colours, more in keeping the harmonisation of numeracy,http://www.voltimum.co.uk/consult.php?action=main&mode=consult&father=&child=&textToSearch=&offset=&id=4824&universe=consult.index.questionswhy oh why is this not a regulation then everyone
clear
then again we would not enjoy a good debate
yes steps i agree with you my point is they have left a greymy argument isnt about avoiding a conflict of colours, more in keeping the harmonisation of numeracy,1 = line(or phase, or whatever you want to call it now)
2 = cpc (or switched line for fans etc)
3 = neutral
I wouldn't use any live phase as a neutral colour! I would use N (which is Blue) as the Neutral.what colour do you use for neutral in the new harmonised colours,L1
L2
L3
How can that be when Hager still produce there Rcbo's with a black flying lead for the neutral.Agree that brown-live, black-earth and grey-neutral. Black has been de-neutralised

old stock of RCBO's - doesn't seem likely...........Could be old stock wholesaler has:Y
No its the French sticking two fingers up to harmonization.Could be old stock wholesaler has:Y
Where do you get this supposed association of numbers with function from?my argument isnt about avoiding a conflict of colours, more in keeping the harmonisation of numeracy,1 = line(or phase, or whatever you want to call it now)
2 = cpc (or switched line for fans etc)
3 = neutral
why wouldnt they be,?Where do you get this supposed association of numbers with function from? The only link I see is that the L1 color was generally used for L, the L2 color for earth, and the L3 color for neutral (suitably sleeved) when red/yellow/blue cable was employed in a single-phase application.
But as L1/L2/L3 aren't applicable in that application, I don't see why that should necessarily mean that brown/black/gray need to be substituted in the same sequence.
Yes, but in the single-phase situation in question we have L/N/E, not L1/L2/L3, and phase rotation doesn't come into the picture.or dont you worry too much about your phase rotation?
