POWER CONNECTION FOR MMA/TIG160 & 200

CONNECTING TO MAINS POWER

NOTE: These welders are earthed and must only be connected to the

mains with an earth connection. DO NOT attempt to use it without

one.

• These welders will draw far too much power for a normal domestic

230V mains plug and socket and will be supplied fitted with a

32Amp, 3-pin industrial plug.

• A high current 230V mains socket or terminal must be installed by a

qualified and accredited professional electrician. A 32A socket used

with a plug conforming to IEC 60309 is recommended.

• A non-socketed mains connection also requires connection by a

qualified and accredited professional electrician. However, a

socketed connection is safer and is recommended so the welder

can be safely isolated when necessary. If directly wired to the mains,

a double pole, double throw isolator switch must be fitted.

• The welder must be connected using a circuit protected by an RCD.

• Please refer to the Specification for details of the maximum current

required by this welder.

If in any doubt, do not attempt to connect or use this welder until a

professional electrician has been consulted.
