Terminal Screw Color

[al hildenbrand]

For 15 and 20 Amp 125 Volt straight blade receptacles, is there any Code or manufacturer's standard that specifies the side terminal screw head color (other than for the equipment grounding conductor screw)? To be clear, I'm only asking after the color of the energized and groundED conductor terminal screws.

Look at 200.10(B).

The use of the word "or" in 200.10(B)(1) would mean that a color differentiation is not required if other text based marking is present adjacent to the terminal.

That is correct, and I don't think I have ever seen a "white" colored screw on a wiring device...they look silver to me.
