What are these wires

Have a 82 distributor. The picture is of the harness coming from the distributor after the 4 plug connector.

So in the grey shielded cover are Green with white tracer, Black, Black with white tracer, Solid Green. Outside the shielded cover is a yellow and a white.

 

Only thing in the fsm is about a white and the yellow that is suppose to go to thermal switches. But those are in a different wire harness. I would assume that the Black w/white tracer is power if so what voltage? 12v or a reduced voltage? Black ground. Leaves the green w/white tracer and solid green. One is the hal optical sensor. 

 

Any help appreciated.

82 Turbo?  You didn't specify.  There are two optical sensors.  cgsheen has a good write up posted on here with the wiring.  I don't have the link handy.

 

Google search on turbo distributor wiring to pull up what you seek.

Just looked at the spare harness - Yellow is temp sender, White is thermotime switch.  The 4 shielded wires are CAS.  You're correct,  Black/White is IGN ON +12V,  Black is GND, the greens are signal from the optical sensor - one is the one degree signal, the other is the 60 degree signal.  Don't know which is which yet - I'll have to cut the harness wrap to find out...
