I would love to have a three-phase service. It's just more efficient for
*anything* with a motor in it, and it makes powering high-current devices
much easier. I really can't justify a 480 volt three phase service, but if
I'm ever in a position to get a new service to my house, I'm going to take
a good hard look at it, and damn the cost.
That AC is probably putting out a whole lot of noise-- have any problems
with that 8530?
