The number of Volts in a residential service drop in the US is either 120V 2 Wire, 120V-208V Network, or 120-240V 3 Wire. A 120-208V Network service is not single phase, but its 120V portion is.

∙ 10y agoA 'two-phase' system is an archaic system that has long been replaced by the three-phase system, and which provided a means for self-starting a.c. motors. A two-phase system is a three-wire or four-wire system, in which two phase voltages are generated 90 electrical degrees apart.
Unfortunately, some people confuse the 'two-phase' system with the 'split phase' system, used for residential supplies in North America.

∙ 12y agoA single phase system has nothing to compare to, so it does not make a lot of sense to ask how many degrees out of phase the voltages on a single phase system are.
However, in many areas, a single phase system is center tapped at the service transformer secondary, and that center tap is grounded and called neutral. Each leg typically is 120V to neutral and 240V to the other leg. (US/Canada, and some others)
Strictly speaking, this is not a two phase system - it is often called a split phase system. If you were to measure the phase angle between the two hot legs, you would see a "phase angle", so to speak, of 180 degrees.

How do you get single phase 440 from three phase 440?
You Don't. 440volt 3-phase is actually 480 volts, taking a single phase gives 277Volts single phase. To get single phase 440 you would use one leg of three phase 440/760 three phase power.
Can there be 600 volt single phase power?
Yes there is single phase for 600 volts. It is used for lighting. You need a transformer which gives you 600 volts plus a neutral. The voltage for the one phase to neutral is 347.
How do you calculate 440v phase?
Let's get the terminology correct. A 'phase voltage' is measured across a phase, whereas a line voltage is measured between two lines. So there is no such thing as a 'phase to phase' voltage -it's a line to line voltage (hence the term 'line voltage').
Can you single phase 220VAC in place of three phase 220VAC?
Yes, just use L1 and L2 ( just 2 of the 3 legs), or one of the legs to a neutral wire if equipped. Just make sure the voltage is the same as the 220 volts you wish to have with single phase service.
What voltage you get at home in India?
The single phase voltage in India is 230v when we check with the phase and the nutral single line
How many amps does a 2000 watt heater draw at 240 volts on each line?
For a single phase circuit, the equation you are looking for is I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts.
How many amps will a 500kw using 240 volts produce?
500,000 watts/240 volts = 2,083.34 Amps (single phase)

Is 380 volts electric motor a single phase or 3 Phase?
It is probably a three phase 50 Hz motor.
What is max single phase hp as per nec?
The maximum single phase HP motor listed in the CEC is 10 HP. At 115 volts 100 amps and 230 volts 50 amps.

Can you use 240 volt 3 phase to run a machine that is 240 volt single phase?
Yes, if the motor is rated 240 volts 3 phase.There is such a thing as 240 volt 3 phase power.However if you are asking if you can use 240 volts single phase on a three phase motor, then the answer is no.
How will a 3 phase panel give you 110 volts and 220 volts?
A three phase panel will not give you 110 and 220 volts. A three phase four wire panel will, but not at these voltages. The nearest voltages will be 120 and 208 volts. The 120 volt is the wye voltage of 208 volts. 208/1.73 = 120 volts. A single phase three wire panel will give you 110 and 220 volts.
Can you single phase 220VAC in place of three phase 220VAC?
Yes, just use L1 and L2 ( just 2 of the 3 legs), or one of the legs to a neutral wire if equipped. Just make sure the voltage is the same as the 220 volts you wish to have with single phase service.
How many output amps is a 75 KVA generator single phase?
The formula you are looking for is , A = kva x 1000/Volts.
