Orange cables contain high voltage charges up to _________ volts.

Orange cables contain high voltage charges up to _________ volts.

• A. 120
• B. 650
• C. 240
• D. 1000

Answer: (B)

Orange-colored cables are used to warn that they carry high voltage and require special precautions. In many safety training schemes, this orange coding signals a maximum voltage around 650 volts. That’s why the blank is filled with 650—the rating matches the warning color and the level of protection and PPE typically needed for work around such cables. The other voltages don’t align with this orange-cable convention: 120 and 240 volts are common household voltages and aren’t represented by orange in this scheme, while 1000 volts belongs to a higher voltage category that usually uses different color cues and stricter controls.
