Sparks what is the secondary voltage you are looking for?

Al he wants to go from 208 to 240 volt.

No that is not right all conductors will be used.

Look at Scott35's post with the schematic, that is the connection.

Bob:

You're right if his transformer has an x4 connection, what he posted leaves the impression that his secondary has only three wires brought out. That made me pause too when composing my reply. If he has 4 wires on secondary, then scott35's schematic is the ticket.

If his transformer has only x1,x2,x3 brought out, then the x2/x3 connection is a short (in the connections he described in the post abvove mine) and will release smoke.

Sparks30, tell the masses what your wires are! We're on the edge of our seats!

Edit: If he does indeed have an x4, then it should go like this:

Wire H1 to one leg of 208;
Nut H2 AND x1 together, this is the other leg of 208;
Nut x2 and x3; LOAD will connect as :
One leg to H1;
Other leg to x4

I need an aspirin.
