    Should have a caution about plugging a motor into a 3 phase outlet and having the right rotation. Most of our 3 phase outlets at work are for motors. Unfortunately there is no standardization of power leg phasing - one usually just has to plug the motor in and see if it rotates the right way. If not, then two of the legs - any two - have to be switched around.

      Most pros carry a phase rotation meter.

    personally, I would have double tapped the ground wire on the outlet first, then tied it to the ground strap on the box.... but in reality, I would have used a metal box to start with....

    So for 208V, we don't need a neutral, right?

      I said the same... for video purposes he should have checked voltage phase to phase..

      To understand that you need to go watch a video on 208 three phase wye wiring.

    Is it really "live", why not shut the power to that point?

      He said while it was not needed, he was showing how to do it for metal boxes.
