Yellow 240v extension reel??

[jinjoh_ninjoh]

Hi all,
Today I was given a yellow 240v extension reel to use.
Now if I'm not mistaken yellow flex indicates 110v.
So how does this comply?
If I was to use this on a construction site everybody would assume it is 110v whereas in reality it's not it's 240v!
Thoughts please

I've got a red one does that mean I can only use it in a fire?

Whats the point when it has a 13A plug at one end and 13A sockets at the other, most numpties would know it was 230v

I was being flippant mate. That's what the smiley face is for isn't it? I'm not that tech savvy when it comes to the little characters.... (I don't mean Tattoo)

No you can only use it on 400v 3 phase extension leads as isn't that the colour of the plugs

If its domestic dont forget to put it inside a metal enclosure before putting it on the fire though.
