To tap a thread through plate or sheet material, only the #1 is required as it has a conical tip for starting, and a finishing thread further up the shaft.

To cut a thread in a blind hole, the drilled hole must be started with the #1 tap, and finished with the #3 tap. Whether the #2 tap is necessary depends upon the hole-depth and material. The #3 tap is also commonly used for cleaning and refinishing existing threads.
