Yes the theory was that it would act like a balanced signal interconnect system. But in an AC power system from a noise/leakage voltage/current point of view, the power transformer in an audio component is asymmetrical (mostly due to capacitance differences of the windings), so the noise voltages don't cancel out nearly as well as the proponents would have you believe. Much of the benefit comes from the it acting as an isolation transformer wired as a Separately Derived System.
We re-did a recording studio (many years ago) with one of those 60/120 systems, we put different color receptacles within 6 feet of the regular 120V but did not use a special configuration.
There was a ton of old and new equipment in there, lots of old tube stuff, there was no way a special outlet would have worked.
The transformer / panel was a listed product, a single unit with a bunch of two pole breakers and dead front GFCI's for each circuit.
Bottom line is they were extremely pleased with it.
The graffic should be changed to show a 240V primary as that's what they use on the primary side.
I have never seen the 6 phase models just the split phase.
Do anyone have a graffic of the 6 phase?
