The current requirement while welding with 3.2 mm size electrode varies with wether it is root pass or second or capping pass. As for root pass value of current will be () and for 2nd or capping pass its value will be ().
It stands for electrode. As opposed to R ( rod) for gas welding or TIG welding. If it carries electrical current it is an electrode.

The flux is the outer coating on a welding rod. The flux is a very important part of the welding rod.
welding rod is used without applying current through it while the other one is, current is passing thru it..i.e. Welding rods are used in TIG welding process while Electrodes (E6011, E6013, E7017..etc..) is used in SMAW process
The letters EN , on a welding electrode , indicate "electrode negative" , that is the electrode is to be used with a DC current , in the negative position, or polarity.
welding rod chemical formula?
for steel structure building can i use: -size 2.5mm of 7016 welding rod as a filler for welding IPE240 to plates -size 2.5mm of 7016 welding rod as 2nd pass

a welding rod
TIG welding electrodes do not melt under most applications. Electrode means it carries electrical current. In MIG welding the wire becomes the electrode. In TIG and Gas Welding the filler material is called a rod. Stick welding uses rods called electrodes.
To get a smooth welding action, you need to strike a proper spark that gets the Rod melting properly.
