    The document describes four methods for identifying control cables using different conductor coloring schemes. Method 1 uses base colors with tracer colors according to provided tables. Method 2 uses a neutral base color with tracer colors. Method 3 uses a single color with printed identifiers. Method 4 uses a single color with printed numbers only. Tables E-1 through E-4 provide examples of color sequences and combinations for different numbering of conductors using the various identification methods.

    The passage describes four different methods for identifying circuits in control cables using various color combinations.

    The four methods described are using colored compounds with tracers, using a neutral colored compound with tracers, using a neutral or single color with surface printing of numbers and colors, and using a neutral or single color with surface printing of numbers only.

    Method 1 uses a base color for the background with tracer colors added in accordance with Tables E-1 or E-2. The base colors are black, white, red, green, orange, blue, and combinations are repeated as needed.

    APPENDIX I
    ICEA Conductor Identification for Control Cables
    The following paragraphs contain recommendations for conductor and circuit identification of control cables when such identification is used.

    METHODS OF CIRCUIT IDENTIFICATION


    Method 1 Colored Compounds with Tracers This method uses base colors with tracers in accordance with Table E-1 or E-2. These color combinations shall be repeated in regular sequence as necessary. Method 2 Neutral Colored Compounds with Tracers This method uses a neutral background or base color, such as tan, on all conductors, with tracers as defined in Method 1 and in accordance with Table E-3 or E-4. These color combinations shall be repeated in regular sequence as necessary. Method 3 Neutral or Single-Color Compounds with Surface Printing of Numbers and Color Designations or Only Color Designations This method uses a single-color insulation or covering on all conductors with printed conductor numbers and color designations or only color designations in accordance with Table E-1 or E-2. These color combinations shall be repeated in regular sequence as necessary. Method 4 Neutral or Single-Color Compounds with Surface Printing of Numbers [Control Cable only] This method uses a single color insulation or covering on all conductors with each conductor numbered in sequence by surface printing, beginning with the number 1.
