Thankyou Don,

This has been very informative. I will read the HV 7200/12470Y spec to mean that you can connect the transformer across any two phases for a 7200 delta system or connect from any one phase to ground for a 12470Y system.

Hi Gerry R.
The bottom line is that that transformer can only take 7200 volts. Over volting it can cause arcing in the can and that can cause acetyline gas to form in the can, very bad, tends to blow the lid off next time there is an arc in the can.
