"Ed,
3 Phase: each phase 120 degrees apart from each other.
2 Phase: each phase 180 degrees apart from each other.
240 Vac into house is two 120 Vac lines, 180 degrees apart from each
other,
and each relative to a common neutral. Earth ground is a separate
fourth
wire. Now, do you call this two single phase lines or a two phase
system?
I know what I call it.
Anyway, this is what I'm meaning,

I call it single phase and I think most everyone else does too.
