So basically under the current Irish rules the only re-identification of cores allowed is to change one phase color to another phase color then?

Quote
Blue cores shall be used only as neutral conductors and shall not be converted

Isn't there any exception to that for switch loops, or are you going to have to carry stocks of 2xBrown for switch wiring?


By the way. newcomers to ECN might not have found this old thread yet in which we had a long discussion about various national color codes:

International Wire Colour Codes


A summary of the main points can be found here:
