Box 7
Symbol for welding power sources which are suitable for supplying power to welding operations
carried out in an environment with increased hazard of electric shock (if applicable).
Box 8
Welding current symbol e.g.:
Direct current
Alternating current, and additionally the rated frequency in
hertz e.g.: ~50 Hz
Box 9
