Direct interference radiated from feedback into the power lines. 4. Interference from re-radiation of “pickup” by ungrounded metallic objects. Keeping these contributing factors in mind, installing equipment per the following instructions should minimize problems.
  • Page 11: Input Connections

    The Inverter LTP7000 must be connected to AC220V±10%, 230V±10%, 240V±10%, 50/60Hz Single phase supply. The rated output of the LTP7000 is available when connected to a 30A branch circuit. When connected to a branch circuit with lower amp rating, lower welding current and duty cycle must be used.
