      The only way to be sure is to turn off the power to your thermostat & Furnace and open the thermostat to find the wires.

      Hello Abe, I am not an expert but as far as I know, you can try to identify the wires by checking your furnace end. Turn off the power to furnace and open the cover to find the configuration of the four wires. In my case, even though we had lot of wires coming out of the cable in the thermostat end, only four of them were actual working ones that were connected to the furnace. The fifth one that was missing for us was the power wire. That why we added an external power adapter. If you are still unsure of the wires, do not try anything on your own. Please contact your local electrician.
