Oct 13, 2017 at 16:21 comment added Jon Watte @MartinBonner Very true; typical European wiring is three-phase 220V/240V. Which goes to show that you should typically check with someone who knows the specific rules and codes for your locale if you're unsure of what you're doing! Better safe than sorry.
