ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE (EMC)
Whilst this unit complies with EMC regulations, the user is responsible for installing and using the
welding equipment correctly. If electromagnetic disturbance is detected it is the responsibility of
the user to resolve the situation. Remedial action may be as simple as earthing the welding
circuit, see ‘Note’. In other cases it could involve constructing an electromagnetic screen
enclosing the power source and the work complete with associated input filters.
Note :- The welding circuit may or may not be earthed for safety reasons.
Changing the earthing arrangements should only be authorised by a person
who is competent to assess whether the changes will increase the risk of injury,
e.g. by allowing parallel welding current return paths which may damage the
earth circuits of other equipment.
ASSESSMENT OF AREA
Before installing welding equipment the user shall make an assessment of potential
electromagnetic problems in the surrounding area. Avoid using your welder in the vicinity of:
a) other supply cables, control cables, signalling and telephone cables; above, below and
adjacent to the welding equipment;
b) radio and television transmitters and receivers;
c) computer and other control equipment;
d) safety critical equipment, e.g. guarding of industrial equipment;
e) pacemakers and hearing aids etc;
f) equipment used for calibration or measurement;
g) other equipment in the environment. The user shall ensure that other equipment being
used in the environment is compatible. This may require additional protection measures.
