    Two Wires Appliances Such As Iron

    Single-phase appliances like irons and kettles are connected to a single-phase power supply from a single-phase alternator. Poly-phase systems have advantages over single-phase systems including requiring fewer transmission lines to transmit the same power, providing higher power output from generators of the same size, and producing uniform torque unlike the pulsating torque of most single-phase motors.

    Two wires appliances such as iron, electric kettle, fans, etc.

    are
    Single-Phase Appliances which are connected to a single phase
    supply.
    A single phase alternator is an ac generator.

    Advantages of Poly-phase over Single-phase system


    Conducting Wires: A poly-phase system requires a less transmission
    line than a single-phase system for transmitting the same amount of
    power at the same voltage.
    Power/Voltage Output: A poly-phase system of the same frame size
    as a single-phase system gives higher power/voltage output than
    the single-phase system. A 3-phase motor gives 1.5times the value
    of a single-phase of the same size.
    Torque: Poly-phase motors have uniform torques whereas most of
    the Single-phase motors have pulsating torques. -Starting and
    Efficiency: Poly-phase inductors are self-starting and more efficient
    whereas a single-phase inductor is not self-starting and is less
    efficient.

    Power Factor: The power factor of a single phase motor is less than a poly-phase
    motor of the same rating.
