I buy mine from the NIC but i would think you should be able to get them from most electrical wholesalers.

With such specific wording, you will probably have to get it made to order. We get traffolyte labels made for us by a local engraving company. If you google traffolyte" you'll get lots of hits.

But just a thought on the colours. The wording of the second part probably means that it should be considered a mandatory rather than warning label. "Do not replace...." is an instruction which would be white on a blue background.
So maybe it actually needs two labels.
Maybe this explains the difference:

Thanks, I'll try the NIC. The information was obtained from the Electrical safety council and is shown as black text on yellow background,but as yet I haven't been able to source any.
