Across
  1. 4. Electrode connected to the positive and work clamp to the negative
  2. 6. Amount of water flowing from the garden hose (current)
  3. 8. The load or current is adjusted on the welding power source
  4. 10. how much voltage the machine has available
  5. 12. Green-Connected to the ground- connects from being shocked
  6. 14. Supplies AC to homes
  7. 17. better than insulator but not as good as a conductor
  8. 19. Flows in one direction and has a positive or negative Polarity
  9. 20. Uses 3 fuseses to complete the circuit
  10. 22. Uses two fuses to complete the circuit
Down
  1. 1. Allows current to flow
  2. 2. voltage while the machine is welding
  3. 3. Electrical Pressure that forces current to move Does not flow
  4. 5. The theory that electrons flow in opposite direction
  5. 7. Has alternating positive and negative polarity
  6. 8. Load voltage is preset on the wedlding power source
  7. 9. completes secondary voltage circuit
  8. 11. Percentage of time during a specific time frame the powersource or accessories can be used before it exceeds temp limits and insulation in the component parts.
  9. 13. Opposition to current flow
  10. 15. Electrode connected to the negative and work clamp to the positive
  11. 16. between the electrode and the workpiece when welding
  12. 18. Relationship between Amps, Voltage and Resistance (watts)
  13. 21. Slows down current
  14. 23. Voltage input to the machine from the power company
