B. Better Setup

Ref. 804 461-A

1 Welding Power Source

2 Electrode Cable

3 Feeder Cable

4 Work Cable

5 V oltage Sensing Lead

6 Wire Feeder

7 Workpiece

This arrangement is a better setup for

supporting separate voltage feedback to

the welding power sources. The most

accurate voltage sensing may not be

achieved due to voltage drops in the

workpiece. This may require

compensation in the welding parameters.
