Q:I have a 240 volt, 100 amp breaker, dedicated outlet for a welder in my garage. It has the 3-prong dryer plug set up. 50 amps more than required is ok for this Lincoln welder? Wouldn't cause any issues?

      Answer This Question

      A:  A AC welder operates on alternating current (ac), while a AC/DC welder also can operate on DC ( direct current ). In my opinion the ac/dc is the way to go because you have more options, and in many cases you will want to use DC.

          Answer This Question

          A:  Thank you for your recent inquiry with The Home Depot . Per the manufacture installation direction. Using the following instructions, have a qualified electrician connect this receptacle (NEMA 6-50R Type) to the power lines at the fuse box. Three #10 or larger copper wires are required if conduit is used. For long cable runs over 100'(31m), #8 or larger wire in conduit will be needed to prevent excessive voltage drops. Fuse the two hot lines with 50 ampere super lag type fuses as shown in the following diagram. The center contact in the receptacle is for the grounding connection. A green wire in the input cable connects this contact to the frame of the welder. This insures proper grounding of the welder frame when the welder plug is inserted into the receptacle. If a separate disconnect switch is used, it should have two poles for the two hot lines and both should be fused for 50 amperes. You may find the installation guide on the product page under "Product Overview" on the left side under " Info and Guides" We appreciate your business and look forward to serving you in the future
