Default Communication Wire

A question for you, since I do not recall ever seeing a reel at any time with this wire on it. I think during the war it might have been referred to as 'D3 Twisted' or something like that.

What I am wondering about is if the two strands of wire are virtually identical in appearance, or does one of the strands have a trace on it of some sort? Connections on equipment seem to refer to Lines 1 and 2, or Line and Control, which suggests some sort of specific connection is needed, so I am thinking if both strands are identical, how would you remember which was which from one end of your line run to the other?
