[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3908065, member: 5412"] Most 250 amp welders use 12 gauge wiring to supply them. I'm not a big fan of the common analogy of using a water pipe as an example but it does make sense. Amperage is like water standing in a pipe without movement. Voltage is like the water pressure that moves it. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.electricalclassroom.com/difference-between-volts-and-amps-vs/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
