Liability & responsibility of electrician?

Don't you mean 198 V to 242 V?

Chuckle!

You appear to call them the way you see them. Excellent eyesight, I see!

Damned shame someone doesn't pay you for your thoughts. Reminds me of what I like to say about young people that know it all-----if you could buy them for what they're worth, and sell them for what they *think* they're worth, you'd achieve instant wealth.

You think you have more on the ball.

I'm sure you don't have.

Smart people can converse without using their entire vocabulary, as you've just done. I've known some that can actually put together a string of words without vulgarity-----a task that seems to evade you.

You want readers to think of you as something more than a loser?

Quit acting like one.

Don't you mean 198 V to 242 V?

Why yes I did. Good catch!

You're an idiot. READ his post. He was talking about the two sides of HIS service, idiot.

You're an idiot.

Read either side of your house service at ANY time and the two voltages will be right on each other with perhaps a volt or two variance between them. Maybe when the power company puts too many houses on the same transformer, you could see a variance that is greater if the other houses are all loaded up on one side, but the likelihood id very low.

And reading them one right after the other IS "at the same time" for this purpose, ya friggin dope!

Of course taking a reading a day later could result in a differing voltage.

You have about as much common sense as a freshly laid turd.

You're about a goddamnedretard for announcing your filter file edit sessions in Usenet, as if anyone here gives a fatflyingfuck what you read.

You are pathetic. The lack of punctuation alone indicates that fact.

So you think an entire town is fed from not just one substation, but one (coutem 1) SINGLE phase transformer?? get real. [You don't even generally get, two 240 v sources from a singe ph XF anyway, but lets ignore that] But even still, you you can have that much variation, especially if measured at two different times, with different loading, different MV source voltage, and different connection impedance.

jk

Difference between the 2 sides of a residential (split phase, or whatever you want to call the American 115/230 volt system) is NOT uncommon, and is virtually always caused bu a bad neutral connection somewhere.

Yes, it could be, but we're talking about industrial machinery, generally powered by three phase. I have serious doubts that a single phase CNC would contain a $4,000 board when you can buy the machines for that amount of money.

I'm convinced the wiring in question is three phase. The only remaining question is whether it's delta or wye. Considering wye reads 208 volts leg to leg, I'm pretty sure its delta. You?

He is a retarded troll, and he deliberately refrains from treating the crap he posts at the of the crap he posts as a sig.

To be more specific: hyphen, hyphen, space, newline.

The point is that a measurement of 245V, in and of itself, is not proof of

3-phase delta service. I measure 243V between the two legs of my residential service, and I'm quite sure that it's only single-phase.

What is the voltage at the old location? If it is 240 then there is no issue with anything the electrician did...

How ever, it is most likely originating from a 3 phase source via a single phase xformer.

What's that got to do with the price of oats in China?

I don't know about oats, but I hear the price of rice is up!

Your name Shoppa or Lammeh? Just wondering, because that is a pretty lame outlook.

I figured that you were talking through your ass again.
