How can I get 230 volt single pole wire from my house panel?

In North America you can not obtain 230 volts from just one single pole breaker. The distribution is like this, from a one pole breaker to neutral is 120 volts. From an adjacent breaker to neutral is 120 volts. From the adjacent breaker to adjacent breaker (breakers situated beside each other) the voltage will be 230 volts.If you want to incorporate a 120 to 230 volt transformer into the circuit you can obtain 230 volts. The primary side of the transformer will be connected to the 120 volt circuit and the secondary side of the transformer will output 230 volts. The transformer must be sized to the load amperage or the load wattage of the connected 230 volt load.

Yes, all breakers have an insulation factor as to the maximum amount of voltage the device can be subjected to. A 208 volt breaker has a maximum up to and including 240 volts. A 480 volt breaker has a maximum up to and including 600 volts. A higher voltage rating breaker can be used on lower voltages but not the other way around.
