I am a farmer with giant water pumps and center pivots that run on 3 phase 480 volt power. One of my pumps has 85 horsepower. I wonder if I could wire up some sort of custom made tea kettle and get water to boil in five seconds?
3-phase electeode Boiler comes to mind.
Just have it as a pass-through with a grounded shield at the end to keep you from accidentally touching dangerous voltage.

For a small amount of water, I would be afraid of flashing the water into steam, and the resulting steam explosion.
And that's why nobody invites you to parties.

For sure, you could use six 240V heating elements wired in series in three pairs to get their rated power.
Of you can wire 240V elements directly to 480V to quadruple the power, as shown in the video ;)
