Sure you could run three phase into an oven, but I'm not sure I see the advantage. Elements are only going to need 2 line feeds, not three. I guess if you are running multiple elements you could take the three phase and divide it into various phase to phase combinations. Has anyone done this?

Only disadvantage is that most homes and garages do not have access to 3 phase.
