You are not supposed to wire 3 phase equipment to a s pin plug... ever.
in the wire there will be brown, black & grey, these are the phase colours, the blue represents neutral, but in a four wire there shouldn't be a neutral as the left over colour will be an earth (yellow/green).
4 wire cables are designed for balanced equipment and require the offset phases in order to function, if they are wired into the same phase the motor it is designed to run will not move, and may burn out.
You will need to install a 3 phase 4pin socket at the right ampage for the machine it is designed to run.

Is it possible to put a 4-prong plug on a dryer that uses a 3-prong plug and how would you do this?
If you are viweing this because you want to change the newer 4-prong plug/outlet to fit an older 3 prong outlet/plug don't do it! The newer plug is safer and the 3 prong plug no longer meets code. See the discussions in other threads. all you need to do is hook the two hot leads on the outer terminals, then the nueatral, white wire on the center terminal and the green ground wire to the ground screw. Be sure to remove the bonding jumper that ties the neutral to the chassis. This is no longer needed as now you have a ground line from the outlet. There should be 3 insulated lugs in the dryer, two hots and a neutral. Connect the red and black wires in your new cord to the hot lugs (red & black are interchangeable), and the white neutral to the neutral lug. Neutral is the center wire on your older 3-wire cord, for reference. Connect the green ground wire directly to the chassis of the sryer using a convienent screw. Use the four prong cord if you can. It is safer because it has the extra ground wire which older cords did not.
Is it possible to put a 4 prong plug on a dryer that uses a 3 prong plug?
Yes this is possible and for safety's sake highly recommended. Instructions should come with the new cord. Open up the electrical access panel on the back of the dryer. You will see a terminal block with three wires going into it from the plug cord assembly. A red and black and white are now connected to the terminal strip. Look at the position and colours of the existing 3 prong cord and how it is connected. Make a diagram. Coloured wires on the outside terminals white in the centre. From the centre wire terminal you will see a jumper strap that goes to the frame of the dryer. When installing the four prong plug this jumper is removed completely. The kit should have with it a grounding lug that connects to where the removed grounding strip attached to the frame of the dryer. This is the attachment point for the fourth green ground wire from the new dryer cord assembly.
