G'day Guys,
A question of best practice.
Is there a standard set of wire colours that can be applied across an amplifier?
I follow IEC colour coding for the mains side:
Live = brown
Neutral = blue
Earth = green/yellow.
For signals:
Right = red
Left = black
Signal ground = white
What happens when one gets to power supply wiring on the DC side?
I typically use:
B+ = brown
B- = blue
0V = green or yellow
Is there an industry standard or convention for DC power supply wiring?
What do other people around here like to do?

Mains
Live = Brown
Neutral = Blue
Safety Earth = Green/Yellow
Signal
Right channel = Red
Left channel= White
Ground = Black (or screen wire).
Power supplies
+ve = Red
-ve = Black
0v = Green
Live = Brown
Neutral = Blue
Safety Earth = Green/Yellow
Signal
Right channel = Red
Left channel= White
Ground = Black (or screen wire).
Power supplies
+ve = Red
-ve = Black
0v = Green
Positive supply: yellow,
Negative supply: blue,
Gnd: black.
As in 12V at PC supplies, is my rule.
