* International conductor color coding for 4 conductor flexible cable is specified by the standards as ground (green/yellow)
line (brown), line (black), and line (gray). North American 4 conductor flexible cord is specified by the standards and codes as
ground (green), line (black), line (red), and neutral (white). This difference is due to the multiple mains configurations where
North American flexible cords can be utilized.
