2) Do modern refrigerators in apartments use ordinary AC sockets or
3-phase?

It would be an unusual residential apartment which has 3-phase AC
service of any kind directly incoming to the individual apartment.

Not just apartments, but few residences of any type get three phase
power.

In fact, people who want to have a shop with three phase power usually
need to have it added. The usual power setup for residences is what
you have described. 70-200 amp, 110VAC single phase is typical supply
for a home or apartment. The newer the contruction, the more amps in
the supply.

Happy trails,
