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.

	Cable Size for
	125 amp/
Cable Length	30% Duty Cycle
0-50 feet (0-15 meters)	6 AWG
50-100 feet (15-39 meters)	4 AWG
100-150 feet (30-46 meters)	3 AWG
150-200 feet (46061 meters)	2 AWG
200-250 feet (61-76 meters)	1 AWG
