Did you see the term "split phase" in those panel manufacturer's
descriptions? I didn't. They had single phase and 3 phase. They didn't
say "2 phase" either since that is really a thing, having absolutely
NOTHING to do with 120/240.
I really don't care anymore. You can sound stupid if you want, your
choice but 120/240 is single phase to the people who do this for a
living. It is only homeowners and hacks who call it anything else.


If a the transformer secondary had 2 equally spaced taps, would LymeBoi call it 3-phase?
