What is the difference between a phase and a circuit?
A circuit generally includes cables which themselves contain conductors (Line [brown], Neutral [blue] and Circuit-Protective-Conductor [green-and-yellow stripes] in UK standards).The term "Phase" was, until 2008, the previous name for the Line conductor.For a typical domestic dwelling, there will ordinarily be only one Line conductor supplied into the building; thus, the installation would often be referred to as "single-phase."For a typical large inductrial building (factory etc.), there will ordinarily be three Line conductors supplied into the building to provide the required level of voltage for the equipment; thus, the installation would often be referred to as "three-phase."The above relates to the current UK electrical standards of BS 7671. The standards of other regions may of course differ.CommentWhile it is perfectly true that BS 7671:2008 adopted 'line' in place of 'phase', this was to correct its previous incorrect use of the terminology. 'Line' has alwaysbeen the correct term; 'phase', while commonly heard in the field (and in previous editions of BS 7671), has always been incorrect.

BS 7671; The IET Wiring Regulations (currently the 17th edition: 2008, with a first amendment made in July 2011) is a non-statutory document. However, the electrical industry deem it to be a minimum technical standard generally expected. If you had selected a way of designing/installing/verifying an installation or part of it, to a method other than as per stated within BS 7671, but it was equivalent in regards to safety, etc., then you may have a justifiable defense against legal issues.
