I was just looking for a possible way to explain his readings. With two more measurements of voltage we may be able to determine what the source looks like. What transformers are on the pole would be useful to know and how they are wired.
He noted that there was a tag indicating 240 V. Also I assume he is using a meter with reasonably good accuracy.
Another possibility is a single phase system with one leg 240 to neutral plus the center tapped 120-0-120 secondary.
