FABRICATOR 210

INSTALLATION

Manual No. 0-4855

3.04 Input Power Requirements

The Mains supply voltage should be within ± 10% of the rated Mains supply voltage. Too low of a supply voltage may
cause poor welding performance or wirefeeder malfunction. Too high of a supply voltage will cause components to
overheat and possibly fail.

Install a power outlet for each Power Supply and fit fuses as per the machine specifications.

National Electrical Code Standards permit the rating of the fuse or thermal circuit breaker protecting the circuit conductors
to be double the standard rating for any circuit used exclusively for an electric arc welder. Check local requirements for
your situation in this regard.
