Note on DC Wiring and the NEC
Some electricians or installers may be unfamiliar with DC
wiring in a residential setting. Note the following:
• NEC 215.12(C)(2) for correct DC wiring coloring.
• NEC 210.5(C)(2) for identification of DC conduc-
tors carrying more than 50V.
Always adhere to applicable codes when marking and
installing DC conductors.
See Table 3-2. For all REbus DC wiring observe the fol-
lowing coloring convention:
