Which leg is 208 on 3 phase power?
On three phase 208 volts one leg does not have the potential of 208 volts. It takes two legs to provide the 208 volts. The potential is across AB, BC and CA. Voltage to the grounded neutral A-N, B-N and C-N will produce a potential of 120 volts. In a wye configured secondary three phase four wire you have the potential of 120/208 volts.
How do you convert 3 phase 415 volts to 208 volts and Is there any electrical diagram or photo if using auto transformer?
Changing the voltage is done by using a transformer. These voltages are dangerous and the job should be done by an electrician who knows the safety regulations that must be followed in your country.
I have a electrical dryer 240 receptacle that reads 208 on voltmeter and the dryer display reads Pwr Failure and will not operate were did the other 30 volts go?
I am assuming that you have just moved into a new apartment building. Commercial building power systems are changing to 3 phase. The 3 phase voltages are 120/208. 240 volt equipment will run on 208 voltages but at a reduced wattage output. For example Watts = amps x volts. Say your dryer draws 20 amps x 240 volts = 4800 watts. Now at reduced voltage, 20 amps x 208 volts = 4160 watts. As you can see your dryer won't get as hot and will take longer to dry. Most apartments that come with appliances will be rated at 208 volts. See what your dryer manufacturer has to say about getting around the Power failure alarm or whether it can be bypassed to operate on the lower voltage. Other option is to sell the 240 volt dryer and buy a 208 volt dryer. at 208 volts it will not draw 20 amps either
Amp meter is showing 208 volts I need 240 volts?
There is some equipment that will operate on 208 volts even though it is rated to be use 240 volts.See discuss question below.
18 ampers 3 phase 415 volts how much kilowatt?
Volts x Amps = Watts, divide with 1000 and you get kilowatts.
Can a 230 volt supply be reduced down to 208 volts?
Yes it can be transformed from one voltage to the other.
What is 415-207 equals?
622
What is percent of power loss at 415 volts against 11000 volts?
Power = voltage times current, and the power loss is the loss in the line, I^2 * R. At 11,000 volts, the current will be (11,000 / 415 = ) 3.77% of what it is at 415 volts. So the power loss in the line at 11,000 volts will be (3.77% ^2 = ) .14% of what it is at 415 volts.
Can a 208 415 motor run on 230?
never heard of a 415 motor..
If volts is 415 watts is 40000 how many amp need?
The answer is 40,000 divided by 415 or 96.38 Amps. Watts is volts times amps.

How do you convert 230v to 208 volts single phase?
A source of 208 volts can be obtained from any two legs of a three phase four wire 208 volt system. The two legs are classed as single phase 208 volts. The lead tags can be L1-L2, L2-L3, or L3-L1 all of which will give you 208 volts. Any of these lead tags to the grounded star point (wye) will give you 120 volts.
How will a 3 phase panel give you 110 volts and 220 volts?
A three phase panel will not give you 110 and 220 volts. A three phase four wire panel will, but not at these voltages. The nearest voltages will be 120 and 208 volts. The 120 volt is the wye voltage of 208 volts. 208/1.73 = 120 volts. A single phase three wire panel will give you 110 and 220 volts.
How does 120 volts come from 208 volts?
208 is a three phase wye connection voltage. To obtain the each individual coil voltage the 208 is divided by 1.73 which equals to 120 volts. Hence you have 3 phase 208 voltage on the phase legs and 120 volts to the wye point which is grounded. This same formula is used on any 3 phase system. 600/347, 480/277, 208/120.
