[RE-wrenches] 208V residential service

[Darryl Thayer]

sounds strange to me. is the service 120 208 meaning 120 to neutral, and
120 to neutral and 208 between phases?  meaning you are two legs of a
3-phase?  if you are trying to use a single phase 240 volt inverter, be
careful of the inverter wiring.  some inverters can not be connected
because you do not have a single phase  .
