your system might be just using two phases out of three.

are you talking about three phase L2120R ? you can find it in the NEC book, I
had my book at work, but I found a pdf that show it on page 14.  Becarefully
on isolating the different phases and don't cause a short, phase-phase is 
208v, any phase to sys ground is 120, reversing the hot and netural will make 
your equipment case hot.  If you are taping in without a outlet plug, even 
it's a temporary, you should know the requirment from the NEC book first, if
anything happens, insurance might not cover it and you could get in big
trouble.

good luck
