Is it ok to have 120/208 three phase to a suspended/dropped ceiling receptacle?
Are we talking a receptacle that is flush in the ceiling or a receptacle that is above the ceiling?
Nothing wrong at all with the one that is flush in the ceiling. They can be somewhat of a pain to mount and make so that they don't want to "push in" when trying to plug a cord into them.
One would think that is a must and would be required but I am with you -- not sure it is required.Although not required by code, using a twist-lock receptacle in overhead applications is a good idea.
