2011年6月16日 · Please bare with me, I am trying to find the new code on phase taping ungrounded conductors on branch circuits. I am told that I cannot phase tape anything under #8 conductor but in the 2011 code book all I can find is 210.5 (C) (1,2,3) which does not specify AWG, it just says to mark the conductors.

2003年3月16日 · on a 3-phase system(277 or 480) what is the correct color of tape that is to be used for each phase? Menu ...

2010年2月1日 · You are permitted to phase tape MC or AC cable conductors. You can re identify any size black conductor as a ungrounded conductor. For example you can tape a black wire in an MC cable red or blue. 200.6 and 200.7 deal with identifying grounded conductors and 250.119 deals with identifying equipment grounding conductors. Chris

2024年8月15日 · I am similarly afflicted (Irish/Scottish) and I feel your pain. However, I always use phasing tape and even almost always tape the white blue when using cabtyre (that, too, is a requirement since white is the identified conductor). Actually, I will go one furthur. I always tape the black one black, even though it is already black cable. This is ...

2025年2月11日 · In 200.6 and 200.7 talks about phase taping For the grounded conductor 6# and small has to be white or gray or have 3 white stripes on the whole length of the cable 4 # and larger you can phase tape at the point of termination The ungrounded conductors you can only phase tape 4# and larger But what about the grounding conductor

2010年1月7日 · 250.119(A) permits wires larger than #6 to be phase taper green to identify an equipment grounding conductor. As far as 210.5(C) goes there is no limit to the size for the wires that can be identified by phase taping. For example on ungrounded conductors you can phase tape a #12 conductor. Chris

2010年12月14日 · can you use 120 volt phase tape on a 480 volt color wire? What are you trying to accomplish? The code does not specify the colors to be used to intentify systems. If you are trying to comply with 210.5C, you can only use intentification method that is shown on the required labels at the panels.

2010年6月2日 · Why would it be any different, physically, than using black tape on white wire? I do think that tape on larger conductors is more likely to remain intact for the duration than tape on smaller conductors. Try using tape to re-mark 22 AWG conductors and you will see what I mean.

2023年12月23日 · Phase A- one wrap, Phase B- two distinct wraps, ditto for C. Then the dust and grime sets in and it is hard to see that . But don't despare, because macmikeman already told you about the camoflague baseball cap with built in LED lights for sale over a Lowe's for twenty bucks. Now you can see all three tape messages with no problem.....

2025年3月2日 · I don't think I have ever seen a single phase panel marked with phase tape. We normally refer to single phase as L1 and L2 and 3 phase as ABC. I guess if you pulling single phase from a 3 phase panel it would make sense to mark them. What I have never understood is why a high leg on 3 phase 240 is C on a meter can (poco rules) and we are ...
