4-4. Electrical Service Guide
Failure to follow these electrical service guide recommendations could create an electric shock or fire hazard. These recommenda- tions are for a dedicated branch circuit sized for the rated output and duty cycle of the welding power source.

3Normal Operating (general purpose - no intentional delay) fuses are UL class K5 (up to and including 60 amp), and UL class H ( 65 amp and above).
4Conductor data in this section specifies conductor size (excluding flexible cord or cable) between the panelboard and the equipment per NEC Table 310.16. If a flexible cord or cable is used, minimum conductor size may increase. See NEC Table 400.5(A) for flexible cord and cable requirements.
