Dear all,
in an installation the utility is the changing the low voltage distribution system voltage from 208 V to 380 V to cope with international standards.
Anybody has any literature or recommendations concerning the change of the distribution system assets to cope with this change.

RE: System low voltage change 208 V to 380 V
It would seem to me that this would be the case for you as well. They will (should) provide you with a 380-208V transformer on your incoming line. If for some reason the installation has to bear the cost of the change, the single stepdown transformer at the service entrance is the only cost effective solution.
