We've looked at getting 208/240 receptacles installed on our stage (for an Atomic 3000) and in our adjacent stage shop (for a newer circular saw that requires it), and -- given that the power room is on the other side of the floor, and our college does not have a staff electrician, the informal quotes were *well* up into 4 figures.
It may well be a big deal to do.
It depends on where you are (the legal requirements to do electrical work and such), and your abillity to do electrical work, as well as the length of the runs needed. additionally, figure out if you need 208 or 240, shich has a large bearing, as one is single phase and the others three phase, which you may not even have on the property yet(or possible to get).
If you have someone that could do it in-house, your still looking at a couple hundred in materials alone. In the grand scheme of things, well into 4 figures isn't a lot for a business to spend.
