Phase rotation

Hi all I think its fairly common knowledge that the phase sequence on Merseyside is different from most of the rest of the country but what I didn't know is that South London is also different Blue Red Yellow apparently someone got it mixed up at battersea power station and its been that way since the 1930s is this common knowledge ? Must be very confusing when wiring up motor loads and other phase sensitive gear its amazing to think one cock up 70 plus years ago is still having an effect now

I've known about it since very early on in my time in the industry. Initially in Merseyside, but I was at that time told about some other locations around the country with the same issue. I guess if you are used to working on three-phase systems, and have worked around the country, you'll get to know about it soon enough.
