Wasn't that one of the reasons the live/neutral wire colours changed.


Yes - but more for the general public.


But wasn't the yellow stripe added to the green for the
benefit of the colour blind, whether they be electricians or
customers?

If there aren't any color blind electricians, why is there a
yellow stripe on the earth wire sleeving?


First activity after being accepted as an electrical engineering
apprentice was a session with the company doctor and the Ishihara colour
vision test.
