In the UK, the colours were once black = neutral, red = live, and green = earth. The modern standard colours are now blue = neutral (note the l in blue for left contact in the three pin plug used in the UK), brown = live (note the r in brown for right contact), and green and yellow stripes = earth

In the US, black= hot wire, white= neutral, green or bare= ground (or earth) red= a second hot wire

How do you bypass neutral safety switch on Toyota t 100?

Look at the connector to the neutral switch, on the passenger side, at the tranny, there should be two No. 12 wires. These are the wires that tell the computer the truck is in neutral or park. The other smaller wires are for the shift position lights and the reverse lights. You can either cut these wires and connect them together of get a 4" piece of wire and two spade connectors to make a loop and connect them to the pigtail connector. Alternatively you can remove the switch and trun it to the park position and attach it to the body. Hope that this helps.

Why neutral is earthed always?

The two wires carrying a standard ac power supply are the live and the neutral. By convention one of the two wires is earthed at the transformer providing the supply. That then becomes the neutral and the other wire is the live.
