Answer 1

In our country and in most parts of the world, a colour coding regarding wires specially in the domestic circuit is followed according to which:

Red coloured wires are used as Live wires and
Black coloured wires are used Neutral wires.
The colour coding is followed so that the users of wire can be careful and prevent electrical shock.
