For example, in my house, I have two phases. Each one, to neutral, gets me 120 volts. If I use both phases, I get 220. The equipment might be "single phase 220", but I need two phases out of the electric panel to get it. Sorry, I may not have explained myself well enough ;) On 10/14/2019 8:06 PM, Ronald Natalie wrote: > Absolutely INCORRECT.
