From the nameplate on the welder you find the amperage that the welder draws at the three phase voltage that you are going to use. This amperage is used to size the phase converter. This amperage is also used to size the breaker that will feed the phase converter and wire size for the installation.
I=270000/380/1.732 I=410A USE: 500A CIRCUIT BREAKER
The first thing you have to do is find the full load amps of the motor. The wire size feeding the motor has to be 125% of the full load current. The breaker is usually 250% of the full load current. If the voltage and amperage had been added to the question the exact breaker size could have been calculated.
Add up your amps to calculate your breaker size. Add up your loads (amps), divide by 0.8, and choose that size breaker. If that number does not correspond to a standard size breaker you go to the next higher standard size breaker.
if you have 200 kva so it's 160 KW then ,you need 400 A MCCB and setting at 0.9 and use cable 4c.185 mm2 if the SMDB is nearby and all this will be change according to the ambient temperature and the electrical code used in your area
50amp but if considering the breaker cannot withstand starting current you need to size the breaker up.
The job of a breaker is to limit the amount of current that is applied to the size of wire that is connected to the breaker.
10amp

208 volts is not a common single phase voltage but you could just size your breaker to the capabilities of the conductor. 208 is normally a phase to phase voltage <<>> Many 230 volt motors can be connected to lower voltage supplies. These motors can be connected to supplies of 208 and 200 volts. The code requirement is that the 230 volt full load amperage of the motor be increased by 10% and 15% respectively for wire sizing and breaker selection. To answer the question you will need a two pole 15 amp breaker.
Need motor voltage, amperage and phase to give you an anwer.

500 amp breaker with 250 mcm cu conductors, NEC list this motor as drawing 192 amps X 250% = 480amps go to the next standard size of breaker which would be a 500.
In North America this size breaker could be used on a welding machine. A range in the home would use a 40 amp two pole breaker.
AWG #3 copper.
To calculate the amp draw of a device you need to use one of the following three formula. I = W/E, I = E/R, I =√W/R. Once the amperage of the circuit is found then the size of the breaker can be established.
Mark the phases red (phase) black (phase) and blue (phase) along with a white (neutral) and a ground (wire size depends on the main breaker amperage) the phases attach to the main breaker unless it is a breakerless panel attach the phases to the lugs on the bus bars top or bottom then connect the neutral to the neutral bus and the ground to the panel
