Thank you for the reply, the only question is there a rule of thumb sort of ratio to the size of the breaker needed and the size of welder because I've asked around and I've got varied answers ranging from 16A to 50A which then requires 10mm.its 180 amp .a 32 amp c type mcb should be ok. id wire to it with a 6.0mm supply cable and a 32 amp socket and plug . a shortish 4.0mm rubber flex from welder to the plug will be ok
no I have looked all over but still no luck online as well as onlineIs there not a data plate on the machine
