We have a Klimaire KSWG009-H113 that is pulling 1 leg off a 208 3 phase panel in order to get 115v. that panel was accidentally hooked up to 480 3 phase so the unit got around 230V put across it. What was most likely damaged? How do we go about fixing it?

thanks for your HELP!!!

Hi,
Start with a thorough visual inspection.
That's not an accident. I'd say sloppiness.
Lesson learned.

Whose bright idea was that? If you're lucky you just fried a transformer.
