The 225 amps is the secondary output amperage. Look on the machines nameplate to find the input amperage. It is that amperage that is needed to size the feed wire and there the breaker size. When you find that amperage you may want to re question the breaker size.
The size of the circuit breaker and the wire that will feed the welder is based on the amperage that is needed by the welder. The voltage only explains what the insulation factor of the wire should be.As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.Before you do any work yourself,on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.
To operate a Lincoln AC-225 welder, a generator with a minimum output of 5,000 watts is typically recommended. This ensures that there is enough power to handle the welder's starting and running requirements. It's also important to check the generator's rated voltage and ensure it matches the welder's specifications, usually 230 volts. Always consult the welder's manual for specific power requirements.
NO! If you're running a 40 amp circuit you must use 8AWG wire. If you attempt to use anything smaller you run a significant risk of burning your house down. If you are unfamiliar with wiring regulations and practices, contact a qualified electrician to wire the circuit for you.
The size of the breaker needed for a 220V wall heater depends on the current rating of the heater. Generally, for a 220V heater, a 20-amp breaker is common. However, it's important to check the manufacturer's specifications and local electrical codes for the appropriate breaker size.

maybe 10 amperes
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.
For a 240-volt circuit that requires a 50 amp breaker, the appropriate size of the breaker needed is 50 amps.
Normally AWG #10 wire on a 30 amp breaker but it really depends on the size of the pump. The pump manufacture will specify the size wire and size breaker needed.
Technically no. In the USA the NFPA electrical code requires a separate circuit for each large appliance receptacle- there are a few exceptions (such as a heater and AC on same circuit) - I don't think the welder is one of the exceptions. In practice, as long as only one receptacle is used at a time, it will work fine Make sure that the wire size is correct for the current (amp) draw. This is taken off of the welder nameplate. Size the breaker to protect the wire size. If more that one welder gets plugged in the breaker will trip.
A minimum of 15-amp breaker is "needed", but a 20-amp is often required by electrical code for that situation.

When you refer to a 200 amp welder you are talking about the output side of the welder. What you have to do is find out what the input voltage and current of the welder is to calculate the size of a generator needed to operate the welder.
