I am looking for a new code concerning identifying wire under 8 awg from factory and not field coloring.
If the inspector is saying smaller ungrounded conductors can not be re-identified he is wrong.

.......nor can white .... conductors be re-identified at all in any size.
I think it still serves a purpose when read in conjunction with 200.6(E) Exception 1.So 200.7(C)(1) doesn't need to be in the book?
<#4 they just can't be made white or green.
nor can white or green conductors be re-identified at all in any size.
How about 250.119(B)(1)? That only calls for stripping bare the entire exposed portion of the wire where it leaves the cable. For an individual conductor, I think your point is valid.I think they probably could be, but you would have to re-identify the entire length not just at the terminations, or same for re-identifying a conductor with white, gray, or green. Of course with only a few exceptions, the equipment grounding conductor can always be stripped and left bare - but would have to be for the entire length if smaller than 4 AWG.
So 200.7(C)(1) doesn't need to be in the book?
None of what I said was intended to apply to conductors that are part of a cable.How about 250.119(B)(1)? That only calls for stripping bare the entire exposed portion of the wire where it leaves the cable. For an individual conductor, I think your point is valid.

See 200.7(C) for the use of a white conductor in a multiwire cable assembly as an ungrounded conductor.
See 250.119, Exception for use of the greed conductor in a multiwire cable as anything other than an EGC. It is a very limited exception.
Very limited is right, I don't know what greed has to do with it though
