1950s German appliance wiring colour codes
I have a 1993 German book for d-i-y that shows a table for wire colors of
old and new wiring. Black was and is always live. Neutral and earth weren't always a specific color-- they could have been light grey, beige, white or red. Our house was built in 1961 and has all of them. Today black is live, blue is neutral and green-yellow striped is earth. |
