Something still doesn't sound right to me. Are you sure that you don't have a high phase delta service here? Why would you have a panel with just 2 legs of 208. It's been a long time but I think our power experts here can explain that we could have both 120/240 & single phase 208 avail with a high phase delta. That would explain an imbalance because the "wild leg" would probably be lightly loaded. Be on the lookout for it and measure all three phases to Neutral.

PS: If so, it would be appropriate, because I seem to remember it looking like a Christmas tree.
