  • Page 11: Technical Specifications

    Using fuses or circuit breakers smaller than recommended may result in “nuisance” shut-offs from welder inrush currents even if not welding at high currents. Also called “inverse time” or “thermal/magnetic” circuit breakers. These circuit breakers have a delay in tripping action that decreases as the magnitude of the current increases.
  • Page 12: 120V Input

    120V INPUT The rated output of the Invertec® 100S is available when connected to a 20A branch circuit. When con- nected to a branch circuit with lower ampacity, lower welding current and duty cycle must be used. An out- put guide is provided below. The values are approxi- mate and must be adjusted downward if the fuse or circuit breaker trips off.
