Ya normally that'd be a 300-400 amp weld.
Then again maybe he's using a very strong bias to DC- and using helium and a very fast frequency. Right off the bat if he uses a mostly helium mix the voltage required to stabalize the arc will jump around 50% at the same amperage setting. Boom more penitration more heat per amp by a boatload. Now 200amps is more 275-325amp ish right off the bat. Now crank the frequency up and turn it it more to DCEN (and try not to wind up with a black scummy weld) and a 200amp inverter will weld it.
Who knows what he did - but that's how you weld 10mm plate with a 200amp welder
