Re: curious question: transformer for welding

Bro romelabrador,

To answer your question, nope you will not need a transformer if you plan to buy a portable welder
whether its an AC or a DC set up. If you will get an AC welder, its power supply will have to come
direct from a junction box, meaning you will have to tap it direct from the fuse box of 60 amperes.

May I suggest you settle for a DC weld machine, the brand is your choice, its easy to use and can
be powered direct from any ordinary household outlet plus mas matipid sa electric consumption.
