That makes quite a bit of sense.              > 240/208 is 3p wye              Um, That doesn't make sense to me.              > 240/120 is 3p delta (center tapped)              I don't know how to unpack that. (I don't know as much about ∆ as I do       about Y.)              > 120/240 is single phase.              That makes a lot of sense to me and what I'm accustom to hearing.              > I also assume the "?" that is showing up is just the way a news       > client is rendering the "root" symbol.              Probably.              > The ratio of L/N to L/L voltages on 3p wye are a function of the       > square root of 3.              That's different than I remember. But I could be misremembering or had       the wrong understanding at the time. I'll refresh myself and reply later.                            --       Grant. . . .       unix || die              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
