Ok, here's what I've got;
As I mentioned I have 4 large wires coming into my main panel and a smaller ground wire.
The 3 hot wires go to the circuit breaker terminal in the center. From left to right, A, B and C...
A to B = 241V
A to C = 246V
B to C = 247V
The 4th large wire goes to the 'white' bus bar/terminal strip. This terminal strip is mounted to plastic standoffs and *appears* to be electrically isolated from the metal frame of the enclosure. This wire is labelled as D...
A to D = 123V
B to D = 211V
C to D = 122V
The 5th smaller wire goes directly to the 'green' ground bus bar/terminal strip. This strip is mounted directly to the metal enclosure and is not isolated. This wire is labelled as E...
A to E = 123V
B to E = 211V
C to E = 122V
I've posted up some pics at my personal webspace of my electrical panel, my electrical meter outside, and one of my Dongan 240/480 X 120 step down "industrial control transformers."

Hopefully this will answer some questions for you guys, and we can take this to the next level. Thanks for your time and tips.
