I didn't interpret that way!  His statement "but in the US, the neutral leg would be 120VAC above ground" is confusing because in the US the neutral leg is basically at ground potential.

Glen,

What he said was that what should have been the neutral connection for the 
autotransformer (the I/O common) was connected to Line, not Neutral.  Which 
put what should have been the Neutral connection for the internals at Line 
(120 RMS) instead of near ground.
