Received My PowerArc 200 Today

[Hoosier Hay Man]

Quick shipping and well packaged. I am excited to use it. I do have a question on the plug provided. It is a 20amp. Is that enough?

Thanks,

HHH

No. According to Everlast their units are not supposed to be shipped with plugs. Use a clothes dryer type plug (don't know the official number).

The "official" welding plug is a NEMA 6-50. Throw that one away!

Hi HHH,
I just got mine right before Thanksgiving. It is a blast to use and it makes me look like a better welder than I am. It blows away my old Lincoln AC-225. The max start and running amps on these is 38A@230v. Best to use at least a 40A circuit. I run mine on 50A circuit with the NEMA 6-50P plug. You can buy the Leviton model 931 plug at home depot for about 9 bucks.

Regards,
Mark
