Just curious of the model of the Miller Tig. I would like to read the manual. I looked at a couple of Maxstar models on the website. The manuals seem to be on the money with ground and sizing recommendations. It seems like like the sizing recommendation in your post is based on motor sizing rules. I have hooked up welders and used to clean the Miller hard-wired welders at my last shop. Really wierd, but with todays technology anything is possible.

the welder is a miller syncrowave 200. im thinking about using the time delay fuses instead of the 80a breaker. 80a breakers aren't easy to find. by the time i get home the supply houses are closed. if i hook it up using the 60a time-delay fuses, would i still run 8awg from the panel to 60a time-delay disconnect, and use a 40a breaker in the sub-panel?? my foreman tells me to run 6awg but want to see what others have to say
