In North America the only identified colours are White for the neutral conductor and Green for the ground conductor. The conductors for "hot" feeders can be any colour.
For three phase feeders in Canada the colours used should be L1 red, L2 black and L3 Blue. In the US L1 black, L2 red and L3 blue.
The function of the three coloured wires is to supply the load with a voltage source.
