Can you get 220 VAC single phase by using the ground and one of the hot wires in a 440VAC three phase circuit?

Use a transformer. A 208-240v single phase line has 2 power leads. Consult your local electrician for help! 440v systems are not for toying with when questions like this are asked.

What is the difference between single phase circuit and tree phase circuit?
single phase have 2 wire treephase have 3, and 4 wires
Can you use 3 phase circuit as 3 separate single phase circuit?
yes we can use as a single phase circuit because at practise directly the 3-phase circuit is made by combining the three single phase circuits
Single phase and three phase circuit?
Yes, there is a difference between single phase and three phase circuits.
In a 240 volt single phase circuit A phase is 4000 watts B phase is 7000 watts what is the neutral load?
Question is incorrect. in a 240 Volt single phase circuit, how can you have A phase and B phase?
How you convert the value of single phase power to value of 3 phase power?
Electric power is measured in watts. It does not matter if it is single phase or three phase. All things being equal, for the same load, the power measured in a single phase circuit or a three phase circuit, will be the same.
What happens when any phase conected to ground?
You get a short circuit.
What is single phasing preventor?
Single phasing preventor is an electronic circuit which prevents the Thee phase operated Electrical machines from single phase cut off, Phase reversal and phase imbalance.
How does a thermal overload control a circuit when the phase short to ground?
If you are describing a circuit breaker then its electromagnetic trip component will operate in the event of a line*-to-ground (*not 'phase'!) short circuit. The thermal overload component will only operate in the event of a sustained overload.
How do you covert 120 volts to 208 volts?
Single phase or three phase? 120/208 would be measured hot to ground for 120 and hot to hot (phase to phase) for the 208 reading. Any hot to ground will read 120 and any two phases together will read 208.
The difference between short to a voltage circuit and short to a ground circuit?
A short circuit is an abnormal connection between two nodes intended to be at different voltages. A voltage circuit is caused intentionally for the purpose of voltage sensing. A ground circuit occurs between a phase and the ground.
What is a one gang switch what is a single phase circuit?
A one gang switch is like an ordinary switch box in your home. When there is more than one box, the electrical terminology used is ganging the boxes together. Two switches side by side in a single box is expressed as a two gang box. Three switches side by side in a single box is a three gang box. A single phase circuit is a circuit that gets is supply voltage from a single phase supply system. In North America the single phase supply voltages are 120/240 volts. A single phase circuit can also be supplied from any two legs of a three phase system. The most common voltages in North America from a three phase system are 120/208 volts.
Can you convert a 3 phase convection oven to single phase?
I dont know if you can actually convert the oven's wiring from 3-phase to single phase. You can, however, convert the single phase circuit that will feed the oven to a 3-phase system. To this you will need a phase converter. Now, where to purchase such an item, and how much they cost? i have no idea.
