Hello. Where can I find standards for ground warning tapes for energy and water supply? these tapes are buried about 20cm above the cable / sewer pipe. I will add that I was looking in Uncle GOOGLE tape: BLUE for cables with a rated voltage below 1 kV RED for cables with a rated voltage above 1...

There are also orange for telecommunications cables. The colors of the foil for power cables are described in the PN-76 / E-05125 and N SEP-E-004 standards.

thanks to that i meant part of it. and as for the standards for markings of warning tapes for water pipes are also there?

You would have to ask on the waterworks forum. Yellow is also often used for telecommunication cables, but I don't know if there is any holy script for it.

Yellow is for gas. The most important thing when it comes to security. An example of what ends up with a mistake while working on gas:

Blue tape, width 20 cm with the inscription ATTENTION WODOCIĄG. Without the inscription is also applicable and it is not illegal. Brown tape, often marked CAUTION SEWAGE, to mark sewage discharge pipes. Yellow for gas, but also for district heating pipes (also often described). Orange ribbon with description is currently used for telecommunications. In the past, yellow was actually used to mark telecommunications cables.

Yellow - Gas Blue - up to 1 kV (but there is some telecommunications connection) Red - above 1 kV Orange - Telecommunication cables (e.g. Note !!! Optotelecommunication cable) In addition, it can be Yellow with an appropriate imprint and purple for district heating, Blue, green, brown with an appropriate imprint for water supply or pressure, sanitary sewage systems; Well, it was probably already described above Unfortunately, you can often encounter many surprises underground ...

these tapes are buried about 20cm above the cable / sewer pipe.

I will add that I was looking in Uncle GOOGLE
tape:
BLUE for cables with a rated voltage below 1 kV
RED for cables with a rated voltage above 1 kV
+ text "attention cable"

BLUE - WATERPOWER?
WHITE - BLUE?
GREEN - ???
WHITE - GREEN thermal energy networks
BROWN ???
BLACK ???
+ the inscription "NOTE WODOCIĄG" or "KANALIZACJA"

I learned this from the site:
