These values are calculated from the 1993 edition of the National Electrical Code (NEC).

1 Recommended fuse or circuit breaker size is that closest to 150% of rated input amperage of the welding power source. Article 630-12(a) of NEC

allows fuse or circuit breaker sizing up to 200% of rated input amperage.

2 Input conductor size is for insulated copper wire with 75

°

C rating with not more than three single current-carrying conductors in a cable or raceway

(Table 310-16 of NEC).

3 Maximum length is to prevent more than a 3% voltage drop between service entrance and input terminals of the welding power source (Articles

210-19(a) and 215-2(b) of NEC).

4 The grounding conductor shall be colored or identified as specified in the NEC. Grounding conductor size for copper wire is not required to be larger

than input conductor (Article 250-95 of NEC).
