for USA, Canada and other countries running a 60 Hz supply service.
No. On an existing installation, when replacing an appliance, you can continue to use the existing three wire circuit to feed the new stove or dryer.

No way can the neutral from a lighting circuit be used for a stove!
Lighting circuits must only be used for lighting. Check your national electrical code and/or wiring regulations.

As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.
Before you do any work yourself,
on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,
always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.
IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOB
SAFELY AND COMPETENTLY
REFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.
Assuming you are using the correct meter with true RMS you most likely have a loose neutral somewhere in the circuit. Try to measure from hot to ground. If this measures 120V then you most likely have a loose neutral somewhere.
In most instances, YES especially if it is a BUILT-IN microwave Most microwaves are 1500-1800 watts; this is the entire capacity of one branch circuit If it is plugged into a receptacle that shares a circuit with other receptacles, then the other shared receptacles can not be used while using the microwave. In busy kitchens (commercial) and sometimes at home, this would prove inconvenient
If one circuit contains all three switches and their loads are on the same circuit then only one "hot" and one neutral is needed.
By a long distance, using a microwave is more conservative on electricity than by using resistive heating that a stove utilizes.
with 3 phase lighting you do not have to use as large of wire and can use one neutral for every 3 current carrying conductors so it cut down on material costs ( as voltage increases current decreases) <<>> The voltage 277 is the star-point voltage of a 480 volt three phase system. By using a 480 volt wye system you have the dual ability of running 480 volt three phase equipment along with 277 volt lighting. The side advantage is the ability of using the phase voltage to ground (neutral) 480 / 1.73 = 277 volts for general lighting of the building the 480 volt equipment is located in.
it shows that somewhere on the tail lighting circuit there is some kind of a short circuit,one can test using a multimeter to find the probklem..

No. By definition a resistor provides opposition to the flow of "energy" in a circuit. Electric stoves and ovens operate by using the heat generated by the resistance to electric flow provided by resisting elements in the circuit.
The white (or neutral) wire is not involved in a 220 circuit. Using US NEC conventions, red and black in a 120/240 split phase service form the 240 (220) circuit. The neutral (white) wire is only used when you want 120 (110) volts.

3 pole would be for 3 phase, 4 pole would be 3 phase & neutral
Charging by conduction involves touching a negatively charged object to a neutral object. It can be dangerous when using a part of the human body as the circuit .
They started using electric lighting in theaters in 1869
If one circuit contains all three switches and their loads are on the same circuit then only one "hot" and one neutral is needed.
