Recommendation on UPS (step-down from 208v to 120v)

[Anonymous user]

Hello,

Can experts recommend the right transformer/UPS product to step-down to 120v (5-15). The complication is that we have L6-30 receptacles (for 208v) but the building specs say that the circuit is 250v. The step-down transformers I see on the site are rated 208v, so the concern is that 250v is more than the UPS can handle. Is running a 208V UPS from a 250V circuit a non-starter?

Apologies if the wording is unclear, I an a novice at power issues.

Thanks.

250v nominal is not a common voltage in the US. I've never heard of it. 120, 208 and 230/240 are common. Ask an electrician.
