Miller Electric 301 G manual Connecting To Weld Output Terminals, Selecting Weld Cable Sizes

5-6.	Connecting To Weld Output Terminals
		Y Stop engine.
		Y Do not connect to CC and CV
			terminals at the same time.
		1	Negative (−) Weld Output
			Terminal
		2 Stick/TIG (CC) Weld Output
			Terminal
		3 Wire /CV Weld Output Terminal
		For MIG welding, connect work cable
		to Negative (−) terminal and wire
		feeder cable to Wire (CV) terminal.
		For Stick/TIG welding, connect work
		cable to Negative (−) terminal and
		electrode holder cable to Stick/TIG
		(CC) terminal.

*This chart is a general guideline and may not suit all applications. If cable overheats, use next size larger cable.

**Weld cable size (AWG) is based on either a 4 volts or less drop or a current density of at least 300 circular mils per ampere.
