good morning!
so, can someone explain where/how the 230V works, and comes from for a 208/230V unit on a 120/208 system?
also, upon further thought, regarding the 'wattage' callout vs. VA on a panel schedule:
as it was explained to me, by a PE, 'there's a small difference but for our purposes they're basically the same'. Would y'all not agree that, say you input a value of 1200W from a cut sheet onto a circuit, that it's sufficient for calculation purposes or do some folks really go thru some sort of additional calculations from load to load to ensure they're really calculating what's actually going to be drawn from the physical panel ? I'm thinking, that if the difference is small, you're telling the truth by having that column named wattage, becuase you're simply indicating a watts value specified by the manufacturer? or, sould it really be VA, because that is what it becomes when it's handled in conjunction with other circuits.
