208 v is a three-phase supply voltage used in North America, carried on a 4-wire system. The voltage between one of the three live wires and the neutral wire is 120 v and a single-phase supply can be taken by using one live and the neutral. If in doubt about the connection consult an electrician.

∙ 12y agoAs with any circuit, two wires are required. A 208 volt circuit will require a two pole breaker and be sized to accommodate the required load amperage. 208 volts is the line to line voltage from a three phase four wire, 208/120 voltage system.

How many circuits can share one neutral?
Yes, this is done on star (wye) systems where one neutral is used for three phase wires. e.g. 120/208 voltage system.
How do you covert 120 volts to 208 volts?
Single phase or three phase? 120/208 would be measured hot to ground for 120 and hot to hot (phase to phase) for the 208 reading. Any hot to ground will read 120 and any two phases together will read 208.
208 oz equals how many pounds?
208/16 = 13 13 pounds.
What size circuit breaker for a 208 volt 3 -phase 8 ton air conditioner?
Look for directions on the air-conditioning device and you will see how many amperes it spends. I believe that is 10 A on average.
How many cubic ft13x 4x4?
208
Why won't a 230-460 volt motor work on a 120-208 volt circuit?
Because its designed to operate at 230-460, not 120-208.
What is a 100 amp 208 single phase?
That is 20.8 kVa but a 208 v single phase supply is very rare. 208 v is usually three-phase, with 120v between neutral and the live wires.
Does a 208 volt outlet need a neutral?
No a 208 volt outlet does not need a neutral. 208 volts is the line voltage between any two legs of a three phase 208 volt system.
How do you get 208 on a single wire?
You don't. Every circuit needs a return wire back to the source.
How many square feet are in 208 feet x 208 feet?
It is: 208 times 208 = 43,264 square feet
208 how many years?
The answer depends on 208 WHAT! Seconds?, millennia?
How many ft are in 208 yds?
208 yd = 624 ft
How many meters are in 208 feet?
208 feet = 63.3984 meters.
How many sixteens are in 208?
That simply means to divide 208 / 16.
How many inches is 208 cm?
208 cm is 81.8898 inches.
How many times does 4 go into 208?
208/4 = 52
How many circuits can share one neutral?
Yes, this is done on star (wye) systems where one neutral is used for three phase wires. e.g. 120/208 voltage system.
