Yes, I think that's it. The 210V outlet installed 10+ years years ago by a professional electrician runs off one of the legs at the breaker.

I'm running a 230V air compressor on a 210V line. I'm using the bb transformer to meet the voltage requirement. Single phase motor. Single phase line. Single phase transformer.

Why those two wires got hot I'll never know, and I don't think anyone else will either, but it's working now and will be inspecting it on a daily basis. I think I will leave it open. It allows me to temp gun it in seconds. Been at 103-5F all day, compressor running all day. Breaker is turned off at night.
