I still think it would be nice to see it standardized. I remeber working in a
theatre in upstate NY whose in
house weights were on two different color codes. And to make it even more confusing was they had both steel and lead weights. So you would think you were grabbing a 20lb brick and it would turn out to be 50 lbs!!!!!
At this point of time in my career I am so confused when I look at color coded cables from working with 28 totally different codes.
Green is 20 no 30 no 15 no...........AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!! !!
