180 degrees, but technically, no. It's opposite sign, not 180 degrees

Same thing

No, it's not. It's one phase.

Hi,
It's called bi-phase. aka Edison circuit.

Wrong. It's called "split-phase". ...because that's *exactly* what
it is. Two-phase is something entirely different (and quite rare).

I agree it is single phase and commonly called "split phase".

I have never heard of bi-phase.
