Generally speaking, in most cases it probably isn't going to be an issue, whereby the standard IEEE 30 deg shift with phases connected such that they reach their positive maximum in the order of a, b, c, when rotated in a counterclockwise rotation (positive sequence) are encountered. However, there are utility systems that may role the phases, such that the phases may reach their positive maximum in the order of a, c, b.
When connecting to the utility system, without generation, it is not usually an issue unless you are tying/paralleling two different feeds/systems together. Add generation in parallel and you better make sure your generation matches up, or your sync checks will never give a permissive to close. Same with two different feeders, if they go through different transformations at the point of interconnection, they could be 30, 60, 120, etc. out of phase and you need to know this BEFORE you buy the transformer, because 30 degrees out can be handles with a delta-wye, but say a 60 deg out of phase you'll need to use a delta-delta.
Best to create a 3-line phasing and connection diagram if in any doubt what so ever.
Hope that made sense.
