Your color coding is correct but remember the light was made for 220 volts. If it can use a standard North American bulb, you are good.

 

Except for the code violation. Because it connects to the wiring (not with a plug & receptacle), it falls under the NEC. If I remember correctly, NEC 410 and/or 411 requires all light fixtures (luminares) to be listed.

An EC mark is not a substitute for a listing mark from a NRTL.

 

Light isn’t listed to be installed in North America, especially Canada if you install that light and your house burns down and they can prove the issue what that junky light. Kiss your policy good bye

 

I don't know if it's listed because it is a light fixture bought and sold in a USA lighting store twenty years ago.

I said "European" because I saw the wire colors and assumed this is not the familiar black/white/green it must be an imported item from somewhere like Europe, and the lighting store is one that carries many imported lights from Italy, France, Germany etc...but it was bought new in a box, used for 20+ years and recently removed. I just wanted to confirm the colors. I didn't mean to suggest that it was bought in Europe and shipped to the NA.

Usually the inside of the canopy has stickers to show the model and listing information but that's long faded away.

 

Computer ac cords are those colors alot. I cut the ends off and reuse so seen quite a few. Lowest bidder I guess

 

The NEC doesn't address sales or possession. Only what's actually connected to a wiring system.

A listing mark says that a disinterested party has tested to an agreed upon standard and found the item to meet that standard. A CE mark involves neither a disinterested party nor any testing.

 

I understand that.

Someone buys a light fixture or ceiling fan from Amazon or Walmart, takes it home and opens the box usually either the manual or the fixture itself has stickers on the canopy or somewhere saying if it's listed, it is OK to use in the USA.

Now, say you remove an existing fixture that has been used for 20+ years in a home in the USA, the owner bought the original light fixture at a physical lighting store in the USA that sells lots of European made products. Whatever sticker or marking that was on there is now long gone or faded away. Does it needs a clearly annotated listing on the fixture to deem it now being safe to reuse otherwise is a non-compliant installation?

 

Peel off all stickers and then plead ignorant if something happens. But Pretty sure a ohm meter can tell you the wire order

 

This is a European made light fixture. The end of the wire has brown, blue and green/yellow striped conductors.

Can someone confirm if brown is to connect to hot, blue to connect to neutral and green/yellow goes to ground.

Here are the "Colour Codes" for most of the world.

Quite easy to "look-up" !

So what I have is the harmonised single-phase colours

Line (L)	Neutral (N)	Protective earth (PE)

 

Given the confuzzling circumstances surrounding this most mysterious of visual anomalies let us conclude that there might be more than 1 coding, the colors, thereof.
I just throw Uncle Ohm on the cord. I don’t bother to know or care.
