As it gets closer to your house it goes to a sub station where the voltage is lowered and then sent on its way. It finally arrives in your neighborhood and is sent to a transformer where the voltage is lowered to 220 volts. This is what comes into your house and goes to the circuit breaker box. The next section describes a bit of technical mumbo jumbo about sine waves and phase relationships.
Usally when a building has 277/480 service, there is always a step down transformer involved. Otherwise you would not be able to use any 120 volt equipment. So if it's 277/480, there will also be 120/208 in the same building. Three phase motors usally have high and low voltage configuations these days.
