At least one Chinese manufacturer uses wiring of green, red and yellow. Green is common, red is live and yellow is neutral. As it in any case came with a Australian standard plug attached, I simply opened it, put a proper cable along with a proper cable gland ( as opposed to the original of a hole drilled through the metal with the cable through it with a knot inside) to comply with local colour specifications, and with a South African/Indian standard plugtop as well. Ground went to a proper nut, nylock bolt and washer with a lug as well, not the original bare wire wrapped loosely around a random screw thread inside.
I did reuse the plug though, as Stuart had some Australian Yamaha gensets and was looking for a cheap source of the plugs, and I had also gotten some HP power leads with the Australian pattern as well so put them all together for him.
