Measure the voltage you have and add about 10% and you will probably be good to go.
I don't think using 600 V units will give you any real benefit unless you find the voltage to be dangerously close to 500 V.

Going off of memory my b plus line is running 413. so 10% higher is almost 450.....so I need 500's then, right?
