In North America, you can connect a 240-V load across two lines (not 'phases') of a three-phase system with a 240-V line voltage. In Europe, you would need to connect the load between any one line conductor and the neutral conductor.

I quite happily ran a UK-manufactured 230-V front-loading washing machine for many years in Canada using the method you describe, in the days before such machines were very common. Incidentally, the Canadian system is not a 'two-phase' system; two-phase systems (phase voltages displaced by 90 degrees) are very uncommon these days.

What is the difference between iron clad double pole switch and double pole single throw switch?

Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hz supply service.The difference between a double pole switch and a single pole switch is the use of the switch in the installation or equipment. A double pole switch is used when the voltage from two circuits has to be broken. An example of this is a 240 volt supply. A single pole switch is used where there is only a single supply voltage that has to be broken.

What is single phase supply for domestic uses in kv?

.230kvAnswerThe nominal supply voltage to a residence depends on the national electrical standards in the country in which you live, but no residential single-phase supply exist in the kilovolt range. European countries have a standard nominal voltage of 230 V (which you could express as 0.230 kV, if you really wanted to!) and the US and Canada have a nominal 240/120 V supply voltage.And the correct symbol for kilovolts is 'kV', not'kv'.
