There is 3 phase wire coming into the computer building from the
electrical post outside. Do you think it is important to balance
the load in the 3 phase output of the panel. What is the worse effect
if the load is not balanced. Can that cause the 3 phase electrical
meter to run faster than normal??

The electric company may charge a higher rate if the service isn't
properly balanced.
