Perhaps if this was a worldwide change then it might be acceptable. However, this harmonisation only applies to most European countries. Note the word ‘most’, not ‘all’.
We have lived with easily identifiable colours for as long as I can remember, but soon we will be joining blacks to blues and blues to blacks. It’s a recipe for disaster, and the confusion and expense that will arise as a result could be catastrophic. We have an excellent safety record in this country with electrical installations, and now we have these ridiculous changes which will result in people being killled.
If this is progress and harmonisation, then I’m hanging up my screwdriver.
