In the States the new standard is 240V @ 200 amps, split phase. Most circuits are half of a phase (120V) but there are 240V circuits for load-heavy appliances like stoves and air conditioning. I've heard some people have an extra 240V socket in their kitchens just for tea kettles.
1 already covers 2, and I have enough of 6. Happy all the time would probably turn me into an even lazier person. A little concern now and then keeps me engaged with the world.
