3.3 ELECTRICAL INPUT CONNECTIONS
In order to provide a safe and convenient means to completely remove all electrical power from the machine, it is highly
recommended that a line disconnect switch be installed in the input circuit of the machine.
3.3.1 INPUT ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
The primary input voltage requirements are shown on the power source nameplate. The power source is designed to be
operated from 208/230 vac single phase 50/60 Hz.
Before making electrical input connections to the welding machine, “Machinery
Lockout Procedures” should be employed. If the connections are to be made from
a line disconnect switch, the switch should be padlocked in the o position. If the
connection is to be made from a fusebox, remove the fuses and padlock the cover
closed. If no locking facilities are available, attach a red tag to warn others not to
energize the circuit.
