The higher the voltage the higher the Hashes you can have, that is why I want to connect to 22ov.

In my country common houses have 127V (Single phase- neutral - ground),  I can use a voltage transformer to obtain 220V (Single phase- neutral - ground) and that works well except that the transformer are expensive and generates a lot of heat.

What I want is to use 2 phases to obtain the 220V (biphasic). But I have 2 problems.

- Bitmain told me that the antminers works in monophasic (Single phase- neutral - ground). But I heard of people that has been working with biphasic (2 phases).

- To connect with two phases. Should I use (2 phases- neutral - ground) or (2 phases - ground)?

Is is safe to connect the antminers to 2 phases?

"What I want is to use 2 phases to obtain the 220V (biphasic)"

No, you are STILL using just 1-phase that has been split into 2 lines https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Split-phase_electric_power and that is why the miners PSU's work fine. All you connect is line-to-line and ground, no neutral connection used.

Split-phase 120/240v is entirely different from 3-phase power

^^^^ This is not correct.

Also, the miner isnt what cares what kind of power its fed its the power supply. All power supplies will give the miner 12v, it just depends on what input the power supply can handle.

Stop buying industrial miners, running them at home, and then complaining about the noise.
