Been picking up toys for a "future" kitchen. Found a smoking deal (yes I did) on a combitherm, but it is 480. Not sure how many commercial buildings have 480v.
So I have zero knowledge on the restaurant biz, but what the heck needs 480v? I work in the technology industry, and I've never seen any of our equipment need that much voltage. 220 is super common, but 480!?
probably some kind of big oven or freezer
I run an automotive test lab, we have a few 480v test stands
It is a combitherm.

Lots of good cooks have never seen one, but they have made a lot of mediocre cooks look awesome. It just happens that the one I am looking at is 480v. They come in 240v, but this particular one is a smoking (yes) deal.
