    You have three phase or a separate supply for it?

    Welders that size are usually too much to safely run from a normal 13 amp plug.

    That's where i got the thumbnail picture from. Had their plasma cutter but their stuff is not that cheap relatively.


    Yes, have three phase for the bigger stuff, although we had a single phase 180amp on a 13amp plug without issues :).

    We run R-tech stuff in the Garage and its great. Using a 180amp inverter on a 13amp and its great for automotive. Used it for cage building and structural stuff and its fine as long as its runniing 0.8 wire. Got a larger TIG too and its super sweet.

    We like them and they are UK based and very happy to help.
