5-2. Rated Output Testing Procedure This procedure requires that the load bank and welding power source/welding generator electrical power be ON. For this procedure, the load bank is used to determine if a welding power source or welding generator is supplying rated output. Rated output usually indicates the welding power source or welding generator is working correctly.
6-2. Replacing Fuse F1 Turn welding power source or stop engine on weld- ing generator and disconnect load bank input power plug from receptacle. See Parts List for size and rating of fuse. Fuse F1 Fuse F1 protects the Load Voltage Jack Plugs from overload conditions.
