Yes there is at least one other that I know of, prior to the introduction of the EU colour code here in Australia and New Zealand there was or is this (and I say is because I've found the older colour codes on some equipment that's relatively modern)...

LINE = PHASE                 (AU/NZ) Red
COMMON = NEUTRAL  (AU/NZ) Black
GROUND = EARTH        (AU/NZ) Green

Also, we don't use the terms Line, Common and Ground...we generally refer to them as Phase, Neutral and Earth. 

Regards,
Ken
