Three phase is "quite" a bit harder? You must be a genius when it comes to power. Being an electrical major myself, I feel crap when it comes to stuffs regarding AC and three phase Y-Delta craps. I am more of a DC person and my undergrad is not from here so never knew about how the grid works over here.

Thanks for clearing the confusions up. Learned a lot today

Cheers to Steve for starting this thread in the first place and keeping it warm! I wish I saw your powerhead add before; I need a power head badly :P
