For example if you have an european style one phase per room wiring, if you have a power failure on one phase, you could in theory use that cable to power the disabled part of your house.

Don't ever fucking do it tho. This is an incredibly, incomprehensibly retarded thing to do, and might kill someone, including repairman working to restore your power
