Hi Allen.
Being used the german color code, I was quite surprised about the "strange"
color codes used in the USA (and some other countries).
You fall to a common trap considering to be general what you are used to
locally!
Here the standard for AC was brown for phase, blue for neutral, yellow/green
for PE for ever I can remember. In three phase installations, the second and
third phase were black. So the new definition just slightly changed the
standard, giving the two additional phases a distinction.
I see no problems for electricians to cope with that...
73, Patrick
