This is kind of a vague question but when would it be more beneficial to run 208/120V three phase vs. 208/120V single phase for a commercial bldg?
In reference to motors what would be the recommended point where you would want to have it at 208 3 phase? I was told anything over 3HP it would be better to have it at 3 phase vs. 1 phase because the motor would run more effecient. Is that true? Any opinions would be much appreciated. Thanks.
