By Steve Stephenson

Folling the Australian Standard AS 1345, pipes, conduits, and ducts should use the appropriate colours. Creating a standardization of pipe marking will help prevent possible confusion, injury, and other hazards. Using pipe markers to display what the hazards are can reduce the risk of injury in the workplace. Markers should be placed adjacent to all junctions, valves, service appliances, bulkhead and wall penetrations.
