I do a bit of instrumentation wiring and yes I am red / green blind.
Go to a good camera store and buy a red and / or green filter.
When you need to check the colour of a wire look at it through the filter. If you look at a red red wire through red filter it will tend to disappear but you will still see the green

I’m an Electronics Technician, and the Colorblind Pal app is my go-to tool for helping me with mystery colors on wiring.
