What is welding cable used for?
A welding cable is used for joining or linking up wires or cable. Welding is the process of joining two things together, and the cable is the connector.

What is a welding lead?
the welding lead is the cable coming from the welding machine that either feeds the wire and shielding gas (mig) or or provides current to the electrode through the holder
A welding cable must not have a splice within how many feet of the welder?
5 feet
When welding with DCEN the electrode is positive and the work is negative?
DCEN means Direct Current Electrode Negative. Hook the welding cable to the Positive connection (+) on the machine, the ground cable to the Negative connection (-) Electricity travels from Negative pole to Positive pole.
Within how many feet must the welding cable be spliced from the electrode holder?
A minimum distance of 10 feet from the cable end to which the electrode holder is.
What decides on the size of welding cable to use?
In order to determine proper gauge of welding cable you must first determine how long the distance you will need in cable, the entire length for both electrode side as well as work clamp side, and you also need to know the amperage you will be using. Once you determine this there are various references online and offline, most commonly in the owners manual to most welding machines, that will give you the proper size based on the amperage and total length. there are a few different factors in determining the size of welding cable you use. Thickness of base metal, distance from machine to worksite, and amperage. I am a welder in the navy and sometimes we run our leads over far distances therefore we need a bigger welding lead to handle the increase in amperage to maintain the proper work temperature. There may be more reasons for using a bigger cable but I am not sure.
What element forms no chemical bonds and is used in welding to keep metal clean?
Argon
Does lacquer coating on tinplate affect welding?
Yes. However, there are paints designed to be compatible with welding as they are designed to protect the surface of the plate from corrosion while in storage. In every code or specification, it is specifically stated that welding should be done on clean metal. Welding over paint is discouraged.
How much current flows in welding cable?
It means scondry and primary coil how current flow in weldingp plant.
How can I achieve pretty welds in my welding projects?
To achieve pretty welds in your welding projects, it is important to ensure that your welding equipment is in good condition and that you have the proper settings for the type of metal you are working with. Additionally, practice proper welding techniques such as maintaining a steady hand, using the correct welding speed, and ensuring proper penetration and fusion of the metal. Clean the metal surfaces before welding and use the appropriate filler material for a clean and strong weld. Regular practice and attention to detail will help you achieve aesthetically pleasing welds in your projects.
What cable do you take off a vehicle before you start welding?
Negative cable, usually black. For safety reasons, you should always remove negative cable first and positive second. Replace in reverse order, + first, - last.
