In certain cities specifically - and in many countries generally - any work on circuits carrying mains service voltages as high as 220V to 240V is considered to be unsafe to do unless you are a licensed electrician.
<><><>
Not only unsafe but also it is illegal in all states of Australia.

If you're asking this question you shouldn't be installing an electrical service.
This type of question usually means you aren't ready to do this yourself. Study some electrical training material and the National Electrical Code or call a professional electrician.
If someone were to give you a more detailed answer here, you might attempt to do something you shouldn't be doing, and that may cost someone a shock, a home fire, or their life.
<><><>
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.
If you do this work yourself, always turn off the power
at the breaker box/fuse panel BEFORE you attempt to do any work
AND
always use an electricians test meter having metal-tipped probes
(not a simple proximity voltage indicator)
to insure 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.
Depending on the configuration of the cord cap, the green wire is ground, the white wire is the neutral and red and black wires are the 220 volt source.
Brown is the "hot" wire and blue is the neutral on a UK 220 volt power system.
I think you mean 2 HP pump. I am assuming a 220 To 240 volt supply and that should equate to about a 12 amp current. All my pumps use only a 30 amp breaker and 10 AWG wire.
France uses 220-240 volts for their electrical system.
Wire guage is used as a measurement for the ampacity of the wire. # 14 wire is allowed 15 amp to be applied to it. Voltage is governed by the insulation factor of the wire. The three standard insulations are for 300V, 600V and 1000 volts.
Yes 220 & 240 are considered the same.

# 3 gauge
No because the pump motor will run too fast and the lifetime of the fridge will be severely reduced.
With thick wires that have excellent insulation.
The amperage a 220 volt well pump will pull depends on the wattage of the pump. You can calculate it by dividing the wattage by the voltage (220V) to get the amperage. For example, a 1 HP well pump typically pulls around 8-10 amps at 220 volts.
No !

Brown is the "hot" wire and blue is the neutral on a UK 220 volt power system.
If the motor wire numbers are L1, L2 and L3, it is not a single phase motor. It is a three phase motor. Also for future reference, a 220 volt single phase motor does not use a neutral.
