5.7.1

Aligning the cable resistance

The resistance value of the cables can be set directly or be aligned by the power source. In the delivery
status the cable resistance of the power source is set to 8 mOhm. This value corresponds to a grounding
cable of 5 m, an intermediate hose package of 1.5 m and a water-cooled welding torch of 3 m. The
electric cable resistance should be aligned again whenever an accessory component, such as the
welding torch or the intermediate hose package, has been changed.
