That is 20.8 kVa but a 208 v single phase supply is very rare. 208 v is usually three-phase, with 120v between neutral and the live wires.

A #1 copper or 1/0 aluminium conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 100 amps for 100 feet on a 240 volt a single phase system.
This is a voltage drop to establish wire size question. For a correct answer to this question two values are needed. One value needed is the voltage and the other is whether it is three phase or a single phase installation.
1/0 <<>> This is a voltage drop question. A voltage and whether it is a single or three phase system must be provided to give an answer.
500 mcm (or 500kcmil) conductors are used for 400 amp 480v single phase or 3 phase systems. The wire AND THE TERMINALS must be rated for 90o Celsius.

Answer for UK, Europe and countries running a 50 Hz supply service.Common single phase meters for a 240 v system can take a 60 amp or sometimes a 100 amp load for domestic use.
This seems like a question from an electrical course, and is probably best answered by your course materials. It's your test question, not ours, and there won't always be someone to ask the answer of. Earn your diploma.
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.
No, your amp draw will not be reduced. It will actually be slightly higher because the transformer will not be 100% efficient. Contact TEMCo Phase Converters at (800) 613-2290 if you have any more questions.
In the U.S. single phase at 200 amps is average.
It depends on how powerful the motor is, and what type of load it is driving.
I would go with 20 amp 3 pole 15 amp will also do
You can install up to four 50 amp single phase breakers on one phase of a three phase 200 amp panel, assuming the panel is balanced properly among the three phases. Each breaker will draw 50 amps of current, so be sure to consider the total load on the phase to prevent overloading.
This is a voltage drop question. A voltage needs to be stated to answer this question.
No, a single-phase oven cannot be wired to a three-phase circuit without a transformer. The electrical systems are incompatible and may result in damage to the oven or the circuit. It is recommended to use the appropriate circuit or consult with a licensed electrician for proper installation.
For a 225 amp 208 volt 3 phase circuit, you would typically need to use a 3/0 AWG copper wire or a 250 kcmil aluminum wire. Be sure to consult with local electrical codes and regulations to ensure compliance with specific requirements for your installation.
