This is normal practice - but the loading of each phase should be roughly equal. In the UK, electricity is distributed as 3-phase but domestic premises only ever have single phase supply - in any street, the houses will be connected in roughly equal numbers across each phase.

No. ADHD is not connected with moon phases; however, behavior changes have been reported during different moon phases.


The part of the computer that holds the processor?

Is known as the socket. This is embedded in and wired to the motherboard. The socket provides various currents for different parts of the processor and allows the transfer of data to and from the CPU. Different processors use different socket design, as some require different power phases and data pipelines.

Is it amps measure between two phases when motor running?

The meaning of your question is not obvious, but at no time would/should the phases be connected together. As amps is a measure of current, there would be nothing to measure between the phases.

What is the meter reading if power line is one from the grid and one from earth ground?

The meter is reading one phase from the utility. For U.S. residential power, one phase is typically 117 volts. Two phase power is typically delivered to residences, and if you measure across the two phases, skipping the ground, the meter will read 234 volts (double the single phase). Within a residence most of the outlets and lights are wired to one or the other of the two phases and neutral (which is connected to ground at the entry) to provide 117 volts. The plan tries to balance the usage on the two phases. Some special outlets or appliances may be wired to the two phases instead of one phase and neutral. In those cases 234 volts is provided (commonly revered to as "two-twenty", even though the voltage is normally higher). From the utility side, the two phases are the two sides of a center tapped transformer secondary winding, and the neutral is the center tap. The high voltage primary side is single phase, and is connected to one of the phases of a three phase high voltage distribution. In many neighborhoods the three phases are separated at the edge of the neighborhood and single high voltage phases are wired to different portions of the neighborhood, so it is common to only see only two or one (in regions where the actual earth is used as the other conductor) high voltage wires feeding the residential transformer.


Why we see the different phases of the moon from earth?

The phases are caused by the angle that the sunlight strikes the moon.
