240V 3-Phase, delta-connected, 

with center tap on one leg

With the delta connection, one leg must 

be center tapped, and only the two phases 
on either side of the center tap can be 
used.

The third line (L3 in the illustration) 

of the delta is 208V, with respect to 

neutral, and is sometimes referred to as a 
“stinger.” Do not use this third line.

The two used phases must each measure 

120V to neutral. 

Consult the transformer manufacturer’s 

literature to verify that the single leg can 
supply the required power. 

Caution: Do not use a 3-phase 

delta-connected transformer 

secondary without a center tap on one 
leg. No “neutral” point is available for the 
required ground connection. 

Note: 

The Home Connector’s contactor 

will only close if it detects the presence of 
a ground wire connected to a neutral point 
on the transformer secondary.
