The technology connections video talking about 240v power mentioned some apartment buildings having 208v because they’re bringing in two phases instead of center tapping or whatever. So their comment could be right in the correct locations i think.
And lots of things meant to run on 240 are dual labeled 208/240. If it’s a motor it will end up running a little hotter, if it’s a heater it will end up a little colder.

I’m clearly no sparky.
Correct. It’s not typical, but it does exist. 208v is usually close enough for 240v appliances.
