What is a 120 208 panel?
The most common commercial building electric service in North America is 120/208 volt wye, which is used to power 120 volt plug loads, lighting, and smaller HVAC systems. In larger facilities the voltage is 277/480 volt and used to power single phase 277 volt lighting and larger HVAC loads.Click to see full answer. Herein, is…

Herein, is 208 the same as 240?”220″ and “240” are the same thing. “220” is what the unqualified use to describe 240 volt circuits. 208 can only be obtained from a 3-phase wye system. 240 volts can be obtained from either a 120/240 residential system or a 240 volt 3-phase delta system.Also Know, what is 208 volts used for? -208 volts is type of 4-wire 3 phase with 3 Hot wires and a Neutral used for commercial applications, or 2-wire single-phase with 2 Hot wires, or a 2-wire single-phase with 1 Hot and 1 Neutral wire, depending on the electric service delivered to building. In respect to this, how do I get 208v from 120v? If you consider the output of a 120/208 wye-connected 3-phase transformer, you get 120V single phase between the outer tap and common tap (center of the Y) of each secondary winding. You get 208V single phase between the outer taps of any two windings.What does 208y 120v mean?In the USA the most common configuration is 208Y/120. This indicates that line to line (L-L) voltage is 208Vac in a WYE configuration and the line to neutral (L-N) voltage is 120Vac. It is also sometimes designated 120/208Vac, 120/208WYE, 208/120 WYE, 4 wire WYE or 120/208Y.
