What else can I help you with?
What size breaker is required for a 230v 180 amp craftsman arc welder?
maybe 10 amperes
Can you use a 12-3 romax for a double pole 40 amp breaker It is for a mig welder?
No, the wire will overheat.
What size wire for a 40 amp breaker to a welder?
A #8 aluminium wire with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 45 amps.
Is 30 amp wire good enough to push a 220v welder?
If the welder does not list the input amperage, jyou can always refer back to the math that you learned in school. A simple algebraic formula will help you figure out the amperage: Amps * Volts = Watts Since you already know the Volts (use 240 for calculation), you should be able to calculate the amperage that is used by the welder. Up to about 12 Amps, use a 15 amp breaker and 14 AWG wire. Up to about 16 Amps, use a 20 amp breaker and a 12 AWG wire. Up to about 24 Amps, use a 30 amp breaker and a 10 AWG wire. You should have a qualified electrical professional perform any wiring changes if you do not have an adequate circuit already available to where you will be using the welder.
Do amps increase when electricity is ran through steel?
Yes - very much so. Steel is an excellent conductor of electricity. Wood on the other hand is a very poor conductor.
Can you plug a 120v 20 amp wielder into a 240v 40 amp outlet?
No, it is not safe to plug a 120v 20 amp welder into a 240v 40 amp outlet. The voltage difference is too high and could damage the welder. It is important to match the voltage and amperage of the welder with the corresponding outlet.
How big of a generator do you need to drive a 200 amp welder?
When you refer to a 200 amp welder you are talking about the output side of the welder. What you have to do is find out what the input voltage and current of the welder is to calculate the size of a generator needed to operate the welder.
Would a 135 amp welder work on a 2.4hp generator?
no
Can you run a 15 amp mig welder on 10 amps?
No, you should not run a 15 amp MIG welder on a 10 amp circuit. The welder requires a 15 amp circuit to operate safely and effectively. Running it on a lower amperage circuit can result in overheating, tripping the circuit breaker, or damaging the welder. It's important to use the appropriate power source for your welding equipment to prevent accidents and equipment damage.
What thickness steel can a 90 amp welder weld?
about 2mm mild steel max
What is an amp when talking about electricity?
The unit of current flow is AMP.
How much electricity is in an average house?
The average home built today has a 200 Amp service.
What voltage alternator do you need for a 2002 Dodge Grand Caravan Sport is it 136 Amp or 140 Amp it is a 3.3L 6 cylinder?
12 volt is what you need. You can use either a 136 or 140 amp, makes no real difference.
What size breaker is required for a 230v 180 amp craftsman arc welder?
maybe 10 amperes
What is the 140 amp fuse for in 1998 dodge Dakota?
Alternator
For a 328IC BMW 1996 how do you know which alternator to get 80 amp or 140 amp?
Look it up on the one installed
What are the necessary requirements for installing a 50 amp welder receptacle in a workshop?
To install a 50 amp welder receptacle in a workshop, you will need a dedicated 50 amp circuit breaker, appropriate gauge wiring (typically 6-gauge for a 50 amp circuit), a NEMA 6-50R receptacle, and proper grounding. It is important to follow local electrical codes and regulations when installing the receptacle to ensure safety and compliance.
