...designed to be safe when fed with two 120V phases...

I don't know what you're smoking, but this is incorrect. Go find the wikipedia article on "split phase" and read it.

Every house here gets 240v single phase service, and the electric panels are designed so that it's impossible to wire a 240v circuit incorrectly and get anything but 240v single phase.
