3-Phase Electrical Color Codes (North America): 120/208/240V and 277/480V
3-Phase Electrical System Color Codes (North America)
Reference guide for conductor identification in 120/208/240V and 277/480V three-phase systems.
277/480 Volt 3-Phase System (High Voltage Industrial)
This color coding scheme is commonly used in industrial environments for higher-voltage systems to clearly differentiate phase conductors for safety and maintenance.
Phase & Ground Color Codes
- L1 (Line 1): Brown
- L2 (Line 2): Orange
- L3 (Line 3): Yellow
- N (Neutral): Gray
- PE (Protective Earth / Ground): Green or Green with Yellow Stripe
Note: This scheme is widely adopted in North America for 277/480V systems.
120/208/240 Volt 3-Phase System (Standard NEMA Colors)
Used in commercial and residential applications, this system follows the standard NEMA color codes.
Phase & Ground Color Codes
- L1 (Phase 1): Black
- L2 (Phase 2): Red
- L3 (Phase 3): Blue
- Neutral (N): White
- Protective Earth (PE) / Ground: Green or Green with Yellow Stripe
Standard Compliance: These colors align with common North American practices for low-voltage 3-phase systems.
