Hi all
I have a medico HF surgical handset where the designer has chosen green as a main color for parts of the product. Also the 3 wire cable to the handset has a green outer insulation over the 3 wires. Internal in the cable the 3 wires are blue, red and white. The product is for single use and cant be re-wired. Green is normally used for earth connection in US and Canada. But can we use green on a mulit-wire cable. National deviations to IEC 60601-1 claims; A PROTECTIVE EARTH CONDUCTOR or a PROTECTIVE EARTH CONNECTION or insulation shall be identified by either green or green and yellow colour. Colours of neutral and POWER SUPPLY CORD conductors shall be in accordance with the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC), Part I, CSA C22.2 No. 21, and CSA C22.2 No. 49. Can we use green on a mulit-wire cable?
