Best Answer

Answer depends on voltage being used.

Volts x amps = watts

1000 watts = 1Kw

You have 200 amp welder.

Assuming you have 240volt power line to welder:

240Volts x 200amps = 4800 watts = 4.8Kw

This is wrong. 240*200 = 48,000 not 4,800. You can not handle 200 A in AC side 13 A socket. 200 A is DC output current. 240 A is AC input Voltage. Usually the welding machine output voltage is 12V to 50 V depending on the machine.

So the power will be approximatey 25*200 = 5000 W. But adjusting the output we can work as low as 2000 W

200 A is DC output current. 240 A is AC input Voltage. Usually the welding machine output voltage is 12V to 50 V depending on the machine. So if we consider a welding machine which produces 200A DC current at 25Vp, the power will be 200*25 = 5000W. But we can use the same machine with reduced settings 2000W also.

What is the power rating of 500 amperes welding machine?

Welding is done with a high current and low voltage. The voltage of a 500 amp welder might be 10 v so the power rating in that case would be 5000 watts.

Can a 150 amp arc welding machine be used for welding metal frames?

Depends on how thick the metal parts are, and how well the seams are prepped. You also need to consider the duty cycle of the welder if you're doing serial production or long welds.


Can you convert a 220 welding machine to a 110 welding machine?

Probably not. Some machines can be connected to a variety of voltage situations, most can not. An electrician could tell you if your machine is one of these. WHAT I HAVE IS A 220 VOLT 100 AMP SPEEDWAY SERIES. ITS LIKE THE MACHINE DOESNT WANT TO HOT ENOUGH. TRANSFORMER HAS DOUBLE MOVABLE CORE. You need a 110 to 220 volt transformer capable of providing at least 100 amperes on the 220 side. This transformer will pull more than 200 amperes from the 110 outlet. You may need an electrician to rewire your breaker panel and service connection.
