Is 240 volts the same as 208 volts?

208 volts is usually found when using two of the three legs in a three phase power circuit to power equipment. This voltage is mostly seen in commercial and industrial applications. 240 volts is found when using two legs of a single phase circuit and is mostly found in residential applications. If you are unsure of your situation, it would be best to refer to a local electrician for help.
