I worked for many years in a plant with 240 volt three phase systems. In one building we had an old 240 volt delta system, with no mid-point tap for 120 volt. We used step down single phase transformers to create 120 volts. Essentially they were 1:1 transformers, with a center tap on the secondary for 120 volts, single phase. The other building had a "Red-leg delta" system, which was a 240 volt, 4 wire, three phase delta system where the center point of one phase was tapped to provide 240/120 volt single phase power. These are not uncommon systems in industry where 120 volt loads are low compared to three phase loads. The 208/120 three phase wye systems are usually used in applications where 120 volt loads are relatively higher, although we used that system in on are with a high concentration of Japanese machines which were 200 volt three phase. The 208/120 system kept the three phase voltage within 10% of nominal for those machines and avoided step down transformers. It was also within 10% of our American 240 volt three phase machine, so it worked well for us. Just a thought.

Today's Featured Article - Tractor Profile: Farmall M - by Staff. H so that mountable implements were interchaneable. The Farmall M was most popular with large-acreage row-crop farmers. It was powered by either a high-compression gas engine or a distillate version with lower compression. Options included the Lift-All hydraulic system, a belt pulley, PTO, rubber tires, starter, lights and a swinging drawbar. It could be ordered in the high-crop, wide-front or tricycle configurations. The high-crop version was called a Model MV.
