Which color is associated with Class 2 gloves?

• A. Beige
• B. White
• C. Yellow
• D. Green

Answer: (C)

Visual color coding is used to identify the voltage class of electrical insulating gloves at a glance. Each class has a distinct color so workers can quickly choose the right protection for the task and avoid using gloves that don’t provide enough (or are overly protective for) the voltage involved.

For Class 2, the color is yellow. This standard color helps ensure you select gloves rated for the higher voltage range associated with Class 2, reducing the risk of under-protection. Always verify the glove’s color-coded class along with the proper markings and test date before use. Beige and white or green aren’t the color coding used to indicate Class 2 in the common standards.
