See what happens when you try to explain electrical stuff? Starts out want to know about a cord set up, then under ground wiring, Panel set ups to explaining windings and the original post is out in left field and we never get a answer on what they decided to do?
Wye. The Delta configuration has the three phases connected like a triangle. Delta systems have four wires total: three hot wires and one ground wire. Wye systems utilize a star configuration, with all three hot wires connected at a single neutral point. When the Delta System is tapped in the...
The 208 leg is because the way the Neutral is tapped. A "Y" system taps in the center and Delta System taps it in the middle of a winding which causes a unequal (higher) voltage on one leg to the neutral tap. Think of the Delta as a Triangle of windings then Tap off the middle of one. You get...
You can always use a 4/wire cord and every other junction box alternate between the legs to balance the neutral load. Then at each box you could have 240VAC if needed or both. Then run the wild leg 208 out on a 4way cord for 240 volt only to put it into use for 240 volt loads. That way you...
You will need cords to go where you need power? You could use one cord in a Daisy Chain set up cost more and has limits to where people park to use it.
That is a nice generator I am a little jealous I don't have it! Looks like it has a 208 wild leg, 2 -120 volt legs and Single & 3 phase 240. Very useful for motors too. Just buy a 3 ph 100 amp panel and take your circuits out of it you need.3 ph 100 A Panel
Before my suggestion gets hammered. How much money do you want to spend, Is your Generator Hard Wired or do you have multiple outlets of different amperage and voltages? Are you supplying power to RVs 30 amp or 50 amp 120 volts. 40 ft RV's just some campers needing lights at night. Cheaper to...
