2. Welding equipment
The equipment required for coated electrode welding is relatively simple and includes :
a welding generator which transforms the mains current (high AC voltage and low current) into a current suitable for welding (low DC or AC voltage and high current);
a current supply cable terminated by an electrode gripper;
a ground cable terminated by a ground clamp.
To this equipment must be added: electrodes, a hammer for pitting the slag, a wire brush for cleaning the weld bead and the welder's personal protective equipment (PPE) (§ 6
