4-4. Using AC Arcs Terminal Strip TE4 Connections
! Turn Off welding power
source and disconnect input
power before opening ac-
cess door.
! DC output units do not re-
quire synchronization with
AC output units.
! If there are any questions re-
garding this procedure, con-
tact the factory before con-
necting units.
1 Terminal Strip TE4
This procedure allows the AC out-
put waveforms of two or more units
to have a phase shift. Make con-
nections between terminal strip
TE4 on applicable AC output units
as shown in illustration.
. Do not disturb factory connec-
tions to terminal strip TE4.
! Ensure that primary input
power conductors are con-
nected to each unit in the
same sequence (L1 to L1, L2
to L2, and L3 to L3). See Sec-
tion 3-16 for information on
connecting input power. See
Section 3-17 for information
on testing for proper primary
phase sequence.
2 Lead Being Connected To
TE4
3 Securing Screw
Strip 3/8 in (10 mm) insulation off
end of lead, insert end into proper
location on TE4, and tighten appli-
cable securing screw.
Close and secure access door.
. Connect plug as shown in Sec-
tion 4-5.

. Use two-conductor (12 to 20 gauge) with uninsulated ground,
shielded cable to make TE4 connections. Connect uninsulated
ground wire to terminal C on TE4.
