What is the type of switch that reverses the rotation of a single phase motor?
If you are talking about a switch that is used to change the direction that a single phase motor turns from clockwise to counter clockwise, the switch is called a forward - reverse drum switch. By reversing any two of the three phase legs that feed the 3 phase motor. <<>> On a single phase motor a drum switch is used. This switch reverses the start winding so that when voltage is applied to the motor it will revolve in the reverse direction.
What does a single phase switch look like?
A single phase switch only has two screws to connect power One is the source (or panel power coming in) the other is for the load or device requiring power ( power out) this is referring to residential applications.
Is Europe ac power single phase?
In Europe they have both single phase and three phase.
Can a 240 volt single phase motor be supplied with one phase until the other phase is closed without harming the motor?
Not a good idea. Use a double pole single throw switch to start and stop the motor if motor HP is small. Use a motor contactor on larger HP motors.
What cannot be considered a single phase?
Any load that needs three legs from a three phase system can not be considered single phase. Single phase from a three phase system only needs a connection to two legs.

If you are making your own device and you bring in 208 3 phase for part of your needs - how can you properly tap 110 single phase from it to operate other parts of your device?
Your incoming 208V 3 phase power supply will also need an incoming neutral of the same conductor size. Then any single pole breaker installed in the panel will have 110 volts to the neutral. That is you can run 208V 3 phase motor circuits from a three phase breakers in the panel and any number of 110V circuits from single pole breakers.

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.
When paralleling two AC generators the frequency of the incoming machine immediately prior to closing its breaker should be?
The frequency must be the same and the phase must be the same as well. This can be indicated by having a lamp connected across the switch (for each phase if 3-phase).
How do you switch a single phase unit into a three phase?
You can connect a single-phase load between any one of the three lines and neutral. But it is potentially a dangerous operation if you don't know what you are doing so speak to an electrician who will ask the right questions to find out exactly what you want.
How does the centrifugal switch work in a single phase electric motor?
In a single phase electric motor, the centrifugal switch allows the start winding to be energized through the start capacitor when the motor is starting. This gives an out of phase magnetic field that, along with the in phase magnetic field from the run winding, helps the rotor to begin spinning. Once the rotor reaches a certain speed, the centrifugal switch changes state and cuts off the start winding. At that point, the motor continues running only through its run winding, and inertia keeps the rotor properly phase biased relative to the run winding's magnetic field.
Is the type of wiring in most homes single-phase or three-phase?
Single phase.
Two phase instruments?
There is no such thing as a two phase instrument. There is only single phase and three phase. You can only have: single phase/ one pole single phase/ two pole three phase/ three pole
Single phase and three phase circuit?
Yes, there is a difference between single phase and three phase circuits.
How do you change a direction of a motor?
DC motor: Switch your leads. AC single phase motor: Direction cannot be changed. The motor will run the same direction regardless of how your leads are terminated. AC 3 phase motor: Switch any two leads.
Is Europe ac power single phase?
In Europe they have both single phase and three phase.
