Why would the earth terminal get hot when the car is off?
This depends what Earth Terminal you mean The one on the top of the battery, You may have a bad battery. Disconect it and come back in 24 hours and see if it is dead. Not dead means that there is a short in the electrical system and this terminal needs cleaning. If the battery is dead the battery is bad, replace it. If this is another terminal and gets hot and stays hot it means there is a large draw on the system and this terminal is dirty and requires cleaning. The hot terminal is allways the highest resistance in the system. Good Luck

What color is the negative terminal?
To my knowledge, battery terminals themselves are not colored, OTHER THAN the color of the metal of which they are made. Occasionally, some terminals are plated with something like coppor or brass to reduce the occurance of corrosion, and then the color of the terminal would be the color of the plating matal. Generally, the battery wires, and sometimes the terminal CLAMPS, are color coded. Usually, RED is used to indicate a Positive conductor, and BLACK is used to indicate the NEGATIVE conductor.
What is the terminal color for a hot wire?
Having done this for many years, the best answer I can give you is: A hot wire can be any color. I say this not only because in the U.S., hot wires are allowed to be any color except green, white, or grey; But also because you never know what the person before you did. Sometimes they have even used green, white, or grey as a hot wire (illegally). Not only this, but since there doesn't seem to be any standard, a piece of equipment may be using just about any color as well as a hot. Your best bet for equipment is to find the wiring diagram, and for a circuit coming from a panelboard, to use a meter to determine what is what.
