Universal Color Codes for Wiring?

[HamishR]

I use red for the voltage supply or the pot which controls the decapitation circuit. Black is ground, because when you're buried in the ground that's all that you can see. I rarely use green because I gave up smoking that stuff years ago. Yellow is for gain or the mucous suction circuit. Occasionally the mucous release circuit or any kind of infection. Blue is for in and out because the world is a cold, cold place. And I use white for tone controls because they control the colours and white is all the colours of the rainbow mixed.

I use red and black like others, green for input and blue for output, and the rest for various other things (jumpers, switches or LED wiring if needed). Reasoning is that I just felt like it.

This is exactly what I did for years. Eventually I dropped the green and blue and used black for ground and red for "not ground" so I only had to buy two colors.

Now I only buy black wire and everything is black.

i still do black and red for power but I use purple for everything else usually. I'm going full purple though, there's no reason not to.
