Yes, Grey. A compromise, as the original harmonization suggestion
was to
have three phase wired using three black cores!

Yes, an absolutely mad decision making it impossible to have any
illuminated indicators in the phase colours


how about 1, 2 & 3?

I thought colours ought not to be relied upon anyway - unless users all
airline pilots, train drivers or others known not to be colour-blind


An electrician who is colour blind will presumably know it and use other
methods for identification, for the rest following a colour in and out
of junction boxes, isolators, etc. is the normal way.
