Ok
Little light bulb goes on (jghrist I don't know how to add your text as a quote)
At the pole top transformer my voltage reading is from each leg to neutral so at that point neutral is fine and each leg will read 120
At the load end, or if my sensor's neutral tie point is on the load side of...
I'll try to do some clarification
1. It's not that I am trying to determine if I have a bad neutral connection. I am trying to write software that will check a very large number of sensors placed on distribution transformers.
2. If I detect the above mentioned data can I reasonably assume it...

Thanks this is essentially how I understood it works.
The information about the open neutral is interesting.
The real question is:
If I detect the situations you describe which I would summarize as
1. If a "significant" drop in one leg is simultaneously accompanied by an equal...
I write software that tries to detect problems with power distribution.
1. My understanding about residential power is that a single phase of medium voltage 6K VAC is stepped down by a pole top transformer to 240 VAC. The low side winding is center tapped, the tap is neutral.
2. Three wires...
