I’ve just bought myself a mig welder having never had one before I’ve bought an Rtech 250 amp single phase machine and running it off a 16amp blue socket my trouble is it keeps tripping out if I turn it up much more than half or weld for prolonged periods I’ve been trying to do continuous welds 1m long today. Firstly to mig welders take more power than stick inverters as I could weld pretty big stuff with the stick without problems on the same supply?
secondly can I run a single phase welder from a 3 phase supply perhaps in hindsight I should of bought a 3 phase machine but I wanted the ability to move it to other places on the farm not just the ones we have 3phase sockets in?
