It is not by size but by usage.

Regardless of size, this is the color code UL508a mandates

Black - line voltage
Red - AC
White - AC grounded
Blue - DC
White with blue stripe - DC grounded
Yellow or orange- powered when disconnect is open
White with yellow or orange stripe -grounded conductor not deenergized by the cabinet disconnecting means
Green - ground

Larger size wires can be re-identified as to color under the same rules as the NEC.

I tried to upload the file but it didn't work.
Do a search "UL508a wiring guide" and Eaton has a downloadable file.
