Hello,
Is it OK to use colours other than white/black for live/neutral mains wires in 110V equipment?
I was looking at a teardown of an ATX power supply and one of the photos showed that the live/neutral were brown/blue, even though the input could be 110V. How is this legal to sell in the USA?
Similarly, could 110V equipment made with white/black wiring be legally sold in Europe where it's normal to have brown/blue wiring?
Thank you
