Experts,
I was called to a new Govt installation still in construction, experiencing stray voltages on de-energized duplex receptacles.
I found 1/2" conduit fed from a branch panel, served by (3) 20 amp breakers, with a five wire (12 AWG solid) 208V service feeding a group of receptacles. Phase "A" fed two duplexes, phase "B" fed one duplex, and phase "C" fed one duplex outlet. A total of four duplex outlets.
With various combinations of phases shut off, the stray voltages read between 5 and 35 volts.
Does this appear to be a compliant installation? It supplies electronic display consoles at a tracking facility being built.
