Hi everyone
First post here, so hello!
In the future I will learn how to MIG and/or TIG weld, but for now I need to get my garage wiring sorted out in preparation for a decent welder. I need to give my sparky the amp draw of the welder I want, so he can design a circuit, but i'm not sure what I want yet!
Can anyone suggest what might be a decent size supply in my garage for a home welder?
Would a 16a socket give me plenty of choice of welders, or would it be worth having a 32a socket wired up?
I specified a beefy welder in my title as i'd like a bit of headroom. I may well go for a small/medium welder, but might as well have the capacity for more.
Thanks in advance guys, look forward to being a part of the forum
