The wire feed welder is a MIG welder.
maybe 10 amperes
a stick welder needs to replace his electrode regularly and the flux coating is on the outside while a tig machine constantly feeds the wire and the flux is produced by a filler gas
Yes it can. I use flux core wire because there is no need for gas with flux wire.
A breaker is based on wire size, as the breaker protects the wire and not the load. This is a voltage drop question. A #3 copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 60 amps for 110 feet on a 110 volt system.
No bell wire is not meant to be 230V.

Another name for a wire welder is a MIG welder, which stands for Metal Inert Gas welding.
maybe 10 amperes
connect the Red Yellow blue phases
false
its ok..i found out that it can be done, as long as its not turned up to use more than 130amp.:)
The wire size depends on the amperage, not the voltage. The fact that the welder runs on 440 volts does not affect the wire size! You need to ask this question instead: What size wire do you need for a three phase welder on an eight foot run if the nameplate amps are 45A?
The other welder will also fail.
It is very likely that the 120A current you quote is the output current. Check your Welder Box and look at the input current. It is likely around 30 Amps. To wire a 30A circuit you will need 10 gauge wire and it is likely 3 conductots + ground. You will need a 230V Breaker. Connect the black and red wires from the 10 gauge cable to the breaker, white wire to neutral and ground to ground.
A wire feed welder typically requires a voltage of around 220-240 volts for operation. It is important to check the specifications of the specific welder model you are using to ensure it is compatible with the power supply available.
