Hi, other than the colour coding I don't know of anything on the wires
either. I've had people with vision help to tell me what wires are coloured
red and which are red and black. Perhaps manufacturers could be convinced to
texture the coating on the wire to tell positive from negative.

In most cases they are denoted by colors. red being hot or + and black
groundor - in a 3 wire system you may have white, black and green for
ground.
hope this helps

Excuse me if this is not the right place to ask this; I think that it is
relevant, though, because it has to do with assembling electronics. For
wires that are visually marked + and -, is there a way to tell which is
which?
