• Most common in commercial and industrial buildings
• Three hot legs, one ground, and one neutral
• L1, L2, L3, N, and Ground

• Common in newer commercial buildings that require three phase power for large equipment, but also need many 120 volt circuits.

• Power Configuration – 208V 3 Phase– 208V Single Phase – 120V Single Phase
• For single phase power use 2 leads – 2 Hot legs (208V)– One hot leg and neutral (120V)

480V-3 phase-60Hz (Wye)480V-3 phase-60Hz (Wye)• Common in industrial buildings
where high voltage is desirable, large amounts of fluorescent lighting (277V) are needed, and minimal 120 volt circuits are needed.

240V-3 phase-60Hz (Delta)
240V-3 phase-60Hz (Delta)• Found in older commercial and industrial buildings
• Contains one high leg or wild leg • The wild leg should always be
phase B in the panel • Center leg or wild leg should be
orange• Do a safety check first

• Care must be taken between wild leg and neutral– Wild leg to neutral is 180V-200V– Not usable voltage – Should be identified orange.
• Always check with your volt meter when working on any three phase system
• Each leg to neutral or ground
