You should never try to bypass any protection devices. This is just asking for trouble down the road. The circuit breaker is there to protect the wiring to the device that is powered from that breaker. If the load is too large and keeps tripping the breaker install a larger breaker with new wiring sized to the breaker to accommodate the higher load current. Again do not bypass circuit breakers as you will have no short circuit or overload protection.
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.

A single phase circuit uses a 2 pole breaker if the circuit is 120/240 split phase and the load is connected 240. Both legs are hot, so both need to be protected. This is the normal US/Canada configuration.
single phase have 2 wire treephase have 3, and 4 wires
yes we can use as a single phase circuit because at practise directly the 3-phase circuit is made by combining the three single phase circuits
I have never seen a four pole circuit breaker. Breakers are single, two and three pole. Single pole for 120 volts, two pole for 240 volts and three pole for three phase loads. In North America all neutrals are SN (solid neutrals) and are not switched. In certain applications using a three phase Y-connected load, where complete isolation of the load from the supply is required, the neutral line connects to one pole of a 4 pole circuit breaker.
1. What voltage is the circuit? 2. What is the overcurrent device (breaker/fuse) rating? 3. What is the branch circuit wire size? The wire must be sized to carry the full breaker rated ampacity The branch circuit should not be loaded to greater than 80% of the breaker's rating. Volts X 80% of breaker amps = watts available. Single phase motors rule of thumb is 1100-1400 watts per HP. The precise maximum HP will depend on the current draw of the exact motor you choose, motor ratings do vary. On a 120v, 20a circuit for instance, 2HP is about it. On a 240v, 70a circuit, you can get up to a 14HP motor or so. Theoretically, with enough amps and volts, you could put a million HP motor on single phase, so it's really a matter of what motors are available for your particular voltage as well as how many amps you have available.
The current is limited by the fuse or circuit breaker.

First check the obvious. See if the circuit breaker has been tripped.

3 pole would be for 3 phase, 4 pole would be 3 phase & neutral
The circuit breaker is sized to the full load amps of the motor times 250%.
Yes, there is a difference between single phase and three phase circuits.
Question is incorrect. in a 240 Volt single phase circuit, how can you have A phase and B phase?

No, the three individual poles of a three phase circuit breaker are not electrically connected to each other. If they were, a fault would develop internal to the breaker.
To answer this question a voltage needs to be stated and whether the load is three phase or single phase. Without the voltage the amperage can not be calculated. For single phase, Amps = kva x 1000/voltage, for three phase, Amps = kva x 1000/1.73 x voltage.
