Re: Flat 12AWG Wire Legal?
R-45 requires color coding only on the power side of the speed controller or relay module. On the motor side of the controller, you may use whatever colors you want since power is passing in both directions. Past the controller there is no consistent + or - to deal with. Both students and inspectors often get confused about this.
