ċṪ$Ƥżḅ3Ʋị"μỵƓṢ4ż]¶:ɼ’ḃ7¤&

A dyadic Link accepting a list of the wire colours on the left and a list of the wire labels on the right which yields a list of indicators of whether to cut each wire.

Inputs:

 Red : 1 A : 1
 Blue : 2 B : 2
Black : 3 C : 4

Outputs:

 Cut : non-zero (truthy)
Don't cut : zero (falsey)

Here is an easier to use version accepting the colours, RBK (red, blue, black), on the first line and the labels, ABC on the second line, which yields a list of wire numbers to cut.

How?

ċṪ$Ƥżḅ3Ʋị"...’ḃ7¤& - Link: colours, labels
 Ʋ - last four links as a monad - f(colours):
 Ƥ - for prefixes:
 $ - last two links as a monad - f(prefix):
 Ṫ - tail -> current wire's colour
ċ - count -> number of such wires seen before
 ż - zip with (colours)
 3 - three
 ḅ - convert (zip result items) from base (3)
 X = the indexes to check in the flattened table
 ¤ - nilad followed by link(s) as a nilad:
 "...’ - 41650313607423351764917
 7 - seven
 ḃ - bijective-base -> [4,2,7,2,5,5,1,2,2,5,1,5,2,2,2,5,6,6,7,4,3,3,5,4,2,1,4]
 Y = the flattened table as bitmasks of labels to cut
 ị - (each of X) index into (Y)
 & - (that) bitwise AND with (labels) (vectorises)
