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?

You might need a pressure vessel and a stirrer to hit 100 deg C in 5 seconds.
