Never even thought about the fact that different regions may have different colour standards. This explains some of the power cables I've torn apart over the years and the strange colours I found inside!
> When I trained as an industrial electrician they where different colors, they changed in 2006 so that just makes me feel old (used to be Red, Yellow, Blue with Black for Neutral).
Making a mental note of that one... a black neutral would be a nasty surprise coming from North America.
