Guess what, wikipedia pops up as first search result: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XLR_connector
Have a look at rod elliott's article regarding phantom power:
https://sound-au.com/articles/p-48.htm
as far as i know there is only one international standard.

That is helpful, thank you very much. EU and USA standard differ in the "hot" and "cold" connection. Since I have a balanced input that does not matter in the least for audio or AC. Except for the phase but that is not relevant.
But I wanted to be sure how to connect the phantom power. According to this schematic both signal wires receive positive DC voltage.
Which was not obvious to me at all.
Is the need or option to mark this question as solved?

No, I don't think so.Is the need or option to mark this question as solved?
You can just leave the thread open for eventual other comments or further questions.
(maybe someone might even chime in to clarify the definitions or perceptions of cold and hot in america and europe...)
pin 2 hot and pin 3 cold is the standard everywhere now...
Not having the phantom-power symmetrical would cause speakers and amplifiers to literally blow up whenever mics were switched on and off!! As it is you get pretty loud thumps due to imperfect symmetry.
