They don't have to be on the same branch circuit: just on the same

They are in my country. 3-phase, 240V RMS each phase to neutral, 415V
RMS between phases.
Irrelevant in a domestic setting: it's illegal to have more than one
phase in an ordinary house. Houses will have one phase each, so you'll
share your phase with various neighbours scattered along the street.
How do you figure? In the US most 240V outlets are 3 phase, and they
are
relatively common. You need them for most ovens, washing machines, and
electric cars.
