Working on some canopy lights yesterday in a gas station. 120V, metal halide. Partial outage. Noticed something I hadn't seen before. The panel fed these lights as well as some regular convenience outlets. I noticed B phase had been skipped throughout. Tested it and found it to be a high leg, 208V in fact. This configuration is a delta, am I correct? I understand the reason for skipping B phase....for one, these lights are fed with 120V, you don't want to shoot 208 to them if you've tapped them at 120, and, of course you don't want 208 going to your outlets unless that load calls for 208 at the wall,...which nothing does here.
