The common colour codes for mains wiring are shown in Table, below. The Active (or Line) is the ‘live’ conductor, and carries the full AC supply voltage. The Neutral conductor is not live, but is intended to be the return path for all current in the active lead. The safety earth (or ground) conductor is intended to provide protection against electrocution, and where fitted, must not be disconnected.
