Single or double pole is usually a switch. 110 or 220 on a plug, 110 is usually a double outlet. 220 is usually or always a single outlet. Design of the outlet will vary depending on what is plugged into it. The slots can be 1 vertical and 1 horizontal. Both slots can be at an angle. If a regular 110 cord will not plug into an outlet, good chance it is a 220

Which is best double pole or single pole power socket?
there is no answer a single pole socket is a 120v and a double pole is 240v if you are talking about contactors it is completely up to the appliance but a double pole double throw is just as safe as a single pole single throw contactor, Example a single pole single throw will only disconnect the "hot" wire, not the neutral or ground wire and thus no voltage will pass however with a 240 v circuit a double pole single throw only disconnects one "hot" wire and will still have voltage through the circuit (120 volts not 240 though)and is not as safe as a double pole double throw that will disconnect both "hot" lines so no voltage is in circuit If you need electrical work done and do not completely know how to wire it up to code and be safe in the process hire a professional! >>>ITS WORTH YOUR LIFE<<<

What is the difference between a single gang socket and a double gang socket?
For countries in Europe and other world areas running a 50 Hz supply service.A double gang wall socket has two outlets so you can plug two appliances into it.A single gang wall socket has only one outlet, so you can plug just one appliance into it.Note: You can plug a two-way adaptor into any socket outlet but this is only safe to do if the appliances you want to use take very little power. Such things as table lamps, a television and a hi-fi, a PC and a printer, etc. are all low-power appliances so they can be used safely with a two-way adaptor.If you need to use more than two low-power appliances in a room that only has a single gang or a double gang wall socket then, for safety, you must use a multi-way socket panel. Such a multi-way panel has a cable with a plug so it can be plugged into any wall socket outlet.Such multi-way panels are available from hardware stores and usually have between 2 and 8 socket outlets on them. Such a multi-way socket panel should always include a fuse to prevent all the appliances plugged in to it from overloading the wall socket.For USA, Canada and other countries running a 60 Hz supply service.Generally speaking when you say single gang or double gang, a single gang is two sockets and a double gang is wider and accomodates four sockets. You wouldn't normally say single gang socket. You would say single gang box or single gang face plate. which would be two sockets not one.
