Swap the wires on one of the transformers and repeat the test.

>Thanks for responding Jon, Yes they are made by the same manufacturer. Hopefully the secondaries are color coded and I think they are. Not sure if thats a determining factor on phase to phase. I guess, the way to test would be, If it trips a breaker, it's backwards? Or there must be a better way to determine this?Yes. Hook the primaries in parallel. Then, only hook TWO of the
