The type of supply required for the connection.

Alternating current power supply can be classified into single-phase(1-phase), two-phase (2-phase) and three-phase(3-phase). In general, a single-phase power is used where electricity requirement is low. In short, it is for running small equipment. Two-phase is typically used for 380v supply requiring two phase wires. Three-phase power carries a heavy load and can run large machinery in factories.
