But there is no getting around the fact L1 and L2 are 180 degrees apart. The phase and voltage of the converter's L3 is unanswered. One of my problems is that I have never tried to verify any of this with an oscilloscope. I only have two channels and they are referenced to ground. Making a test seems like it would take some effort and converters generally work fine in practice, so the motivation isn't high enough yet. Thinking more, its just a matter of hooking up the probes to L1 and L3 and seeing what the phase shift is. If I leave the probes unconnected, there is no danger to the scope. Besides the converter should have the same ground.
