   Nope, IEC 60268-5 (and its predecessor IEC 268-5) has been in effect   
   for decades and is quite current. There are any number of nationalized   
   versions of the same standard as well.

   No, it was never "abandoned" by anyone. Any number of manufacturers   
   may fail to follow it, but it is hardly abandoned.
