Isn't 208V usually provided as a connection across two phases of a 3 phase circuit? In that case, you get 120V by going between one phase and neutral (no transformer required). You need a NEMA 14 (4 wire) connector to get two phases, neutral, and ground (provides 1 208V circuit and/or 2 120V circuits) or a NEMA L21 (5 wire) connector to get all three phases, neutral, and ground (provides 3 208V circuits and/or 3 120V circuits). -- Chris Adams <cmad...@hiwaay.net> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.
