Choose the place where the welding machine is to be installed so that there are no
obstructions to the cooling air inlets and outlets; at the same time make sure that
conductive dust, corrosive vapours, humidity etc. cannot be drawn into the machine.
Leave at least 250 mm of free space all around the welding machine.

- Before making any electrical connection, check the rating plate data on the welding
machine to make sure they correspond to the voltage and frequency of the available
power supply where the machine is to be installed.
- The welding machine must be connected only and exclusively to a power supply with
the neutral conductor connected to earth.
- To guarantee protection against indirect contact use the following types of residual
current devices:
- A type (
) for single-phase machines.
- In order to satisfy the requirements of the EN 61000-3-11 (Flicker) standard we
recommend connecting the welding machine to the interface points of the main
power supply that have an impedance of less than Zmax = 0.25 ohm.
- The IEC/EN 61000-3-12 Standard does not apply to the welding machine.
If the welding machine is connected to an electrical grid, the installer or user must
make sure that the machine can indeed be connected (if necessary, consult the
company that manages the electrical grid).
