    Residential service is a single split 240v phase off of a 480V 3-phase line, while something like an apartment is 2 phase 208Y, with a single phase is 120V.

      2 phase 208Y

      3 phase 208. But I imagine you know that, and just fat fingered the wrong key

        Ah, I guess I meant that you’re getting 2 of the 3 phases, which is 208V phase-to-phase, or 120V phase to neutral.
