Dual voltage electric motors are designed to run on either amount of power though they are commonly labeled as 110220v motors out of habit by manufacturers and can be set to use one voltage or the other. When a motors power supply is brought in from three wires instead of just one with the power delivery cycling through each of these in sequence hence the a part of ac it permits an effective power level that is 3 times higher about 1728 times higher than a corresponding single phase set up would be.
