Isnt the whole thing a generator?... -
What wiring is the issue? That is quite a machine in its own right,...Leave a comment:

I see the imports do things slightly different than Hobart that uses 2 ends for the cord on MVP. They build the extra protection in to the cord cap at 240 and then a simple 120 to 240 adapter and the system circuit breaker provides fault protection at 120V
Hobarts 120V is also just an adapter...Last edited by Sberry; 03-10-2023, 10:04 AM.Leave a comment:

I was curious when this all started with DVI or MVP, and wondered how they had stayed compliant with all the sizing. The welding industry amazes me, the code is the same, the rod is the same for decades and they continually keep coming up with new stuff just when you think the end is near.

So,,, IU been reading some code wrong,,, not dangerous but was while doing other stuff trying to come up with all the allowances we see built in to the machine and some circuits supplying them. My book is 2002 if that says anything so while it feels like I read it yesterday that isnt the case. Wasnt...Last edited by Sberry; 03-10-2023, 09:10 AM.Leave a comment:

Do I read it right and it says,,, allows recept OR conductors to use larger breaker???...Leave a comment:

That is good, I do that. 10 is for single circuit in pipe it should be 8 cable really anyway and 8 makes such a secure robust connection ....Leave a comment:

I looked for giggles, they allow the 230 on breaker to 60 at 208. Machine will tolerate 32V drop. I believe there is a 60A outlet? I think its twisty though.
Point of it is,,,, this machine will run on a 60 but the circuit that uses a 50 recept not legal with that breaker. Its not really...Last edited by Sberry; 03-09-2023, 05:08 PM.Leave a comment:

Mac, I think these are a 10 in pipe and 8 cable machine,,, use a 50A breaker. If its solid wire and gas it will run on a 10 easy. There are differences in it and a 240 as I recall. The 240 is a quite a bit heavier and no matter what the 230 is intended for a 50A breaker on 240....Last edited by Sberry; 03-09-2023, 08:08 AM.Leave a comment:
