If it is powering a single 3 phase device and is protected by a single throw 3 pole breaker or disconnect, yes. If all three hots share one neutral, and supply different devices or circuits, breakers should be able to trip independently but would still have to disconnect all three phases together.

Can one use 1 circuit of a 3 wire plus ground 2 circuit cable as a GFI circuit with the other as a lighting circuit?
A GFCI can not be used on a three wire branch circuit. It has to be on a single two wire circuit.
Would a 3 phase 95 millimeter for each phase 150 meters long cable be enough for a 285 kva genset?
Yes, a 3 phase 95 millimeter for each phase 150 meters long cable is enough for a 285 KVA genset.
What AWG cable for 200' x 208 volt three phase 250 amp circuit?
A wire size of 250 MCM will limit the voltage drop to 3% over a distance of 200 feet.
How you convert the value of single phase power to value of 3 phase power?
Electric power is measured in watts. It does not matter if it is single phase or three phase. All things being equal, for the same load, the power measured in a single phase circuit or a three phase circuit, will be the same.
What is the current carrying capacity of 15 meters of 25mm2 3 phase cable?
see cable table chart
Can you use 3 phase circuit as 3 separate single phase circuit?
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
What is the difference between single phase circuit and tree phase circuit?
single phase have 2 wire treephase have 3, and 4 wires
Why the 3 phase of high voltage conductor or cable transposed?
3 phase cable is transposed to minimize the effect of leakage/capacitance current.
3 pole circuit breakers?
3 pole circuit breakers are used for 3 phase lines
Can a cut cable wire cause a fire?
If by 'cable wire' you mean Coax cable for the TV, or Internet, then the answer is no. The power/voltages in the cable are way to low to produce a spark which is usually what triggers flame. If by 'cable wire' you mean a cable carrying an electrical service such as 120V or 240V, then, if the cable is damaged by an accidental or deliberate cut which causes a short circuit from a hot phase wire or wires to other wires in the cable - such as to other hot phase wires in a 3-phase circuit, a neutral or a ground wire - then the resulting heavy current could result in the cable becoming very hot and could cause it to catch on fire unless there was some overcurrent protection device to prevent that from happening. That is why fuses and/or circuit breakers should always be included in any electrical service wiring to cut off the supply of current before a fire can be caused by such damage.
How do you wire 3 phase circuit using 4 core cable and earth in 3 way switch?
There are many ways to wire 3 phase circuits, depending on the application. AN answer here will necessarily be a simplistic and general one. From a safety aspect, anyone seeking information of this kind is not qualified to work on 3 phase electrical systems and to attempt it is risking injury or death. It's best to leave mains wiring to qualified professionals.
Can one use 1 circuit of a 3 wire plus ground 2 circuit cable as a GFI circuit with the other as a lighting circuit?
A GFCI can not be used on a three wire branch circuit. It has to be on a single two wire circuit.
What is the rating circuit of the 3 phase appliance protector?
16A
You found a 220volt coil on a 3 phase motor contactor and the one side of the coil is feed from B phase and the other side is also feed from B phase it would not pull in the contactor?
your not completing the circuit your only using one phase for a three phase motor
Would a 3 phase 95 millimeter for each phase 150 meters long cable be enough for a 285 kva genset?
Yes, a 3 phase 95 millimeter for each phase 150 meters long cable is enough for a 285 KVA genset.
How do you turn a 3 phase motor in to a generator?
We can convert a 3 phase ac motor into generator by changing phase sequence of the ac input cable of that motor
What size of aluminium cable for 3 phase 440 amps.?
About one million circular mill. You need to up the voltage.
