German Low Voltage Wiring

[ChrisEyre]

I have to wire some control panels for use in germany. I need to know what cable colour I need to use for 24VAC and 0VAC!! I'm using Black for power wiring with blue as neutral, its just the low voltage I need a little help with.

Thanks

So far so good, becareful that the AC neutral is light Blue. The DC control circuits must be Dark Blue, it is recommended that if you have not performed this before that you refer to EN 60204-1. This is the standard for the electrical requirements for machinery for Europe.

If you need more details on your CE certification feel free to ask.
