what do the zeros mean on this transformer datasheet?

Im thinking about buying this transformer, 
but the schematic symbol has something I don't recognize, and I want to be certain to buy the right thing for the right application

The application is that I want to convert 208VAC to 120VAC. in the 750kVA to 1kVA range
The part I am confused by is what the zeros on either side of the primary and secondary mean.

To wire the primary, I would use A/B phase. 
I think what the datasheet is saying is that if I have a neutral I would wire it there, not that I can't use 2 phases. 
I'm just trying to verify.image

    I think it's the suggested return terminal. For instance if your AC outlet was between 220-240VAC you would connect one side to H3 and the other to H1. If on the other hand you had 440-480VAC you would…
