How many wires does 220 have?
A 220 volt outlet can take cables with 3 or 4 prongs. Not all 220 volt outputs use a neutral (white) cable, but all will have two hot wires (one red and one black) and a ground wire (green). For example, an air compressor requires 220 volts, but the socket has only three tips.
