Original poster: "Mccauley, Daniel H by way of Terry Fritz <twftesla-at-qwest-dot-net>" <daniel.h.mccauley-at-lmco-dot-com> May be a stupid question, but how does one hook up an arc welder as a current limiter to begin with. Do you short out the output transformer, and then hook the main 220V primary in series??? Thanks "Captain Corona"
