WELDING CABLE CONNECTIONS

Cable Size and Length

Be sure to use welding cables that are large enough.

The correct size and length becomes especially

important when you are welding at a distance from

the welder.

Table A.1 lists recommended cable sizes and lengths

for rated current and duty cycle. Length refers to the

distance from the welder to the work and back to the

welder. Cable diameters are increased for long cable

lengths to reduce voltage drops.
