Black red and yellow is three-phase. there is no neutral.
In USA, Canada and other countries using a similar 60 Hz system:the Neutral wire is colored White or Commercial Graythe Ground wire is colored Green or is bare wireIn Europe and other world areas using a similar 50 Hz system:the Neutral wire is colored Bluethe Earth wire is colored Green and Yellow
The screw is actually only silver in color and it is where the neutral wire(s) get connected to, (white wire). the gold colored screw gets connected to the positive(black or red) wire(s). Green screw is for ground wire.
In ordinary circumstances, a red wire is a secondary hot wire in an AC circuit, or the positive power leg in a DC circuit. Red should not be used as a neutral. If it is used for something other than a hot wire it must be labeled on the wire at all connection points- and would STILL be a bad idea.
The red and black wires are Line wires in a 3 wire service and includes a common (neutral) wire.
the thermostat has a black(line) wire to it, and a red wire going to it. the red wire then connects to the neutral wire. the black and red are like a leg switch.
In North America, the neutral wire is usually white; hot wires will be red or black; ground wires will be green. But it is not always the same; if you are working with three-phase power, or in applications where you have a lot of different wires, color codes can get lost.In USA, Canada and other countries using a similar 60 Hz system:the Neutral wire is colored White or Commercial Graythe Ground wire is colored Green or is bare wireIn Europe and other world areas using a similar 50 Hz system:the Neutral wire is colored Bluethe Earth wire is colored Green and Yellow

The colour red designates that the wire is used as a live wire. The neutral wire is identified as white in colour.
Red is hot Green is ground White is neutral

In residential wiring the white wire is neutral on the 120 volt circuits. On a 3way circuit the red is the traveler and the white is neutral. On a 240 volt 3 wire connection the white & black are hot. On a 240 volt 4 wire connection the black and red are hot and the white is neutral.
