I have the wild leg 3phase in my small commercial building in Spencer, NY.
We just avoid that bar in the panel boxes as we have no 3PH equipment.
Thinking about it, I will check to see if they are charging me extra for it.

Has any body had any experience with a Yandina galvanic isolator? I am planning
to install a model GN-50N. Any input would be welcomed
Emory,
The designer and manufacturer, Andina Marie has been a long standing
member of this list, hopefully she is still lurking to answer any
questions. You can find her at www.yandina.com along with may of her
other designs. She has sold some of her designs under the West Marine
name also.
