   A mnemonic which includes color name(s) generally reduces the chances of confusing black and brown. Some mnemonics that are easy to remember: Big Boys Race Our Young Girls But Violet Generally Wins. Better Be Right Or Your Great Big Venture Goes West. [1] Beetle Bailey Runs Over Your General Before Very Good Witnesses.

3. Thermoplastic-sheathed cable - Wikipedia

   This does not include the uninsulated ground wire. For instance, if the cable lists "12-2 AWG", it means there are two insulated 12-gauge wires (a black and a white wire), plus a ground wire. If the label says "12-3", this cable has four conductors—three 12-gauge insulated wires and a bare copper ground wire. [5]

   With the exception of black, they tend to have lower resistance to ultraviolet light; accordingly, only black is recommended for outdoor applications. Polyolefin tubing shrinks at 143 °C. [ 9 ] Polyolefin heat-shrink tubing typically shrinks 2:1 diametrically, [ 10 ] [ 9 ] but high-grade polyolefin heat-shrink is also available with a 3:1 ...

   Electrical wiring is an electrical installation of cabling and associated devices such as switches, distribution boards, sockets, and light fittings in a structure. Wiring is subject to safety standards for design and installation.

8. Electrical tape - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_tape

   Electrical tape, standard black Electrical tape (or insulating tape ) is a type of pressure-sensitive tape used to insulate electrical wires and other materials that conduct electricity . It can be made of many plastics but PVC (polyvinyl chloride, "vinyl") is the most popular, as it stretches well and gives effective and long-lasting insulation.

9. Electrical code - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_code

   An electrical code is a term for a set of regulations for the design and installation of electrical wiring in a building. The intention of such regulations is to provide standards to ensure electrical wiring systems are safe for people and property, protecting them from electrical shock and fire hazards. They are usually based on a model code ...
