It would have to be a 30 amp breaker to use the full power of the welder. I'd say go with the 30A. The general rule is that your planned load should only be 80% of the circuit capacity. That means a 30A circuit should have a maximum load of of (30*0.8) = 24A. With the 30 amp breaker you must have at least #10 wires feeding the circuit.
Yes.
Yes, you can install a 240V outlet for a stick welder near your panel if there are available slots for a circuit breaker. Be sure to follow local electrical codes, properly size the circuit breaker and wire gauge for the welder's electrical requirements, and consider having a qualified electrician perform the installation to ensure safety and compliance.
The voltage is correct, BUT, Your welder is going to draw more current than the pool pump did. The breaker, wiring, and the receptacle will have to be upgraded. In my opinion I have never seen a "temporary" connection!! ...pkazsr
You would need one 30 amp double-pole breaker in the breaker box for a 240V cooktop.
No, it is not safe to plug a 120v 20 amp welder into a 240v 40 amp outlet. The voltage difference is too high and could damage the welder. It is important to match the voltage and amperage of the welder with the corresponding outlet.

No, a 240V 22A welder requires a 240V outlet for proper operation. Plugging it into a 120V outlet will not provide enough power and could damage the welder or create a safety hazard. It is important to always use the correct voltage and amperage for electrical appliances.
Yes, because you will be able to maintain current flow between phases.
No, you should not hook up an extension cord from a 240V welder to a 240V spa with different wire configurations. It is important to match the wire configurations to prevent damage or safety hazards. Additionally, using equipment for unintended purposes can lead to dangerous situations.
In America, a 2-pole breaker is controlling 240V. 120V per leg.
Yes it will operate it fine.
To rewire a European 240V welder to work on US 240V, you will need to change the plug to a compatible US plug and verify that the internal wiring of the welder is compatible with the US voltage. You may also need to add a step-down transformer to ensure the correct voltage is supplied to the welder. It is recommended to consult with a professional electrician to ensure the modification is done safely and correctly.
