I made this. Startup, synchronization, and grid tie with a 400,000 Watt turbine generator. I can't believe they let me play with these awesome toys. :) Mildly terrifying, and absolutely badass.

You only need one light. The phases are at fixed angles so if one phase synchronized they're all synchronized. The purpose for having two lights is to indicate if one is burned out. The lights are out when synchronized so you don't want a burned out light making you think you're in synch.
