Yes. I'm not an electrician, the only time I've encountered it was at
an exhibition, I think in Bahrain, where a number of British companies
shared a stand. A three-phase cable with a box on the end was dangled
into our stand, along with a request to balance the loads as best we
could. The other people were all too cowardly to touch the thing, and I
was the youngest there (it was about forty years ago) so I ended up
wiring it. Carefully. No, it wasn't live at the time, but everyone who
has built an exhibition stand knows how reliable the organisers'
electricians are, and how power comes and goes without warning...
