I know its wrong but its force of habit...All i can remember from school is that 2 phase was a 4 wire system that was used many moons ago...

This is what happens when I stay up drinking and reading forums on my laptop....

In a 3-phase system, each phase is 120° (electrical degrees) apart. In a 2-phase, they are 90°.
