single phase
Not three-phase
Single phase describes electrical power delivered through one alternating current, the standard form supplied to homes and small businesses.
A single-phase motor or appliance runs on this simpler system, as opposed to three-phase power used in industrial settings.
The workshop only has single-phase, so we can't run the heavy equipment.
