Making sense of my welder specs
Hi guys,
I own Cigweld WeldSkill MicroArc 140 and its specs say:STICK (MMAW) Welding Output, 40ºC, 10 min.140A@15%, 25.6V70A@60%, 22.8V54A@100%, 22.2V
Now, it's 10A plug welder and here is where numbers do not line up for me. 140A*25.6V=3584W where our 10A GPOs are rated 2400W. 1.5 minute at such overage should well enough to trip the switchboard, yet it works. Can anyone enlighten me how does it manage to pull so much power from the 10A GPO?
Thank you.
