Yes, but they obviously cannot be simultaneously loaded their maximum loads because the 400-amp breaker will blow well before that.
Similarly, you can have multiple 100-amp panels fed from a 200-Amp main breaker, knowing that you will NEVER have 100 amps running in all panels at the same time.

How many circuits allowed in a 150 amp panel?

You have a double pole breaker for 240Volt supply. The maximum current is 15 amp.
What size breaker can you use on a 7500watt generator?
Depends on the wire size you are using. If the generator breaker is a 30 amp then install a 30 amp breaker.

Duplex receptacle circuit given 15 amp breaker 225 amp load?
A 15 amp breaker is not sufficient for a 225 amp load. You would need a breaker that matches the load current, such as a 225 amp breaker. Using a 15 amp breaker for a 225 amp load would cause the breaker to trip immediately due to overcurrent.

Is 60 amp breaker good for 225 stick welder?
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.
Can you tap off of a 200 amp service for 2 100 amp panels?
Yes, but at every reduction in wire size there has to be a breaker sized to the smaller wire size. The wire size for 100 amp panels is recommended at #3 copper conductor. From the 200 amp feeder panel you will require a 100 amp two pole breaker for each of the two 100 amp services. Keep in mind that if you run the 100 amp services close to maximum this will take away the capacity of the 200 amp service for other branch circuits coming off of it. Also keep in mind that if the panels are located, not in the same building as the 200 amp service that the 100 amp panels will be treated as separate services and will have to be constructed like a 100 amp service. This includes ground rods. Also the bonding screw will have to be removed that connects the neutral buss to the panel enclosure.
How many breaker amps will a 200 amp service with no main breaker support?
