I'm interested in learning how I'd figure the amperage needed to power my welder. I have an Aerowave that I'd like to bring home and run out in the garage but I'm clueless on figuring the service needed in the garage.
Looking at the user-manual, Page 9, I would need 51 amps to run the machine at 60% duty cycle. Am I reading this right? I didn't think I'd be able to run a 60amp service to the garage and the welder would be happy with it.
Anyhow can someone please clear this up for me? I've got a good distance to run from my main panel to the garage and the price of 6/3 vs. 4/3 cable is pretty big.
