Arrr, the connections are all tight and clean looking... Perhaps all this hassle is just knackered (/rubbish) cables then! Fingers crossed!With very thick cables and solid bolted connections, the high-current secondary circuit should be showing resistances of milliOhms. From Ohm's Law, V=IR, so if the welding current is 30 Amps, a 0.2 Ohm resistance will drop 6 volts, and 0.3 Ohms will cause 9 volts to be lost.
Hard earned sage advice there no doubt, I'll follow it, and keep the Mig death count to 1 :-)When I worked as a computer field engineer, I found that the most likely result of swapping components between a bad and a good machine was that you finished up with two bad machines.
