This is required for polarity marking and circuit identification.

The color code only has value if it is consistently applied throughout the installation: a red sleeve on a negative is worse than no sleeve at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eChoosing the correct diameter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Ø 6 mm must pass over the largest point to be covered, and the Ø 2 mm after shrinking must be smaller than the support so the tubing grips.
