What size breaker is needed to run this machine?

I believe 20 amp for the 120 volt side of the welder and I ran 50 amp for the 208-230 volt side.

My welder was a recycled machine and DOA; I never struck an arc with it and sent it back. I suggest you look here and/or contact Everlast: http://www.everlastgenerators.com/product/tig-stick/powerarc-200

I have mine running off a 50 amp breaker to cover absolute max inpot reguired. You can get away with a smaller breaker if you are using at a lower output.

I'm running mine on a 40 amp breaker... But it also came with a 120v 20 amp adaptor so you could run it on a regular outlet with limits to output..

Mine is a 30A which is suitable for most anything you would be doing with up to a 1/8th inch rod. I've had no problem with my machine after burning pounds of rods-- 6011, 7024, 7018, and 6013.

The maximum size breaker in the transfer swich is a 2pole 30 amp. If you change the breakers the unit is no longer UL LISTED.

It is not recommended by the manufacturer to use any breaker larger than a 30 amp double pole. I don"t operate my stove on the back up generator. With this transfer switch and a 8500 watt portable generator I can run most everything else, not all at the same time though. That includes the AC.

The answer I got from a little web search was 10 Amps. I can tell you I'm running two (20 Amps if search answer was accurate) on a 30 Amp breaker with no problems.

Yes....... 240vac is the max.Your main concern is that you have the space in your electrical box for 2ea 2-pole 40amp breakers and that your service can handle extra 80amp load.

It calls for a 60 amp breaker. Check with home depot or lowes or whoever sells you the needed 60 amp 220 volt breaker. I used copper 2 conductor 6 gage with bare 8 gage copper safety ground. Not sure what code in your area wants though. How far is it from the heater to the circuit box? Mine is only about 12 ft. If you have a real long run you may need to go to a bigger gage yet but I doubt it. This thing does suck a lot of power!

Mine is on a 40 amp breaker...30 is Is to lite for the 7500 would be ok for The smaller unit.

The Titan N-120 is supposed to be a dual-pole 60 amp breaker, but mine is hooked to a dual-pole 50 amp and it works fine. You have an N-160 which recommends 4 or 6 gauge wire and a dual-pole 70 amp breaker. What size are you trying to use?

I found the book that came with the unit was very helpful. Another way is looking at the major appliance ratings you are going to use the switch for. Getting it reasonably close will work fine. If you have 2 things that are hooked to 20 amp breakers split them wiring them to the red terminals, etc. Best I can do, hope it helps.

Actually #12 wire should be used with a 20Amp breaker. NEC only requires #14 to be used with a 15 amp circuit breaker. So #14 wire should be sufficient

Use same gauge wire, 12-2 NM. This is what is required for a 20 amp breaker line.

Use 2 conductor #8 plus Ground. Make sure heater is under 50 ft from the circuit breaker

I ended up sending this back, it was too big and blew the circuit breaker. So I never had it up and running at full heat. Sorry

I run mine of a 15 amp breaker. Any hardware store has them for 10-25 bucks. I would not run on anything smaller.

my machine will run fine on 20 amp breaker on 50 ft. cord . amazing. You also can weld aluminum with this machine D.C. straight polarity with helium.

I have the 3 hp motor. It runs on 220 volts and utilizes a 30amp plug. My electrician installed 20 amp breakers and I have had no problems.Unfortunately, there is nothing in the manual that covers this.

You can set the pump to either 115 or 230 You can make the change by removing the back housing Mine ran on 230 which I think was perset If it trips the breaker at 115 you either have a fault or the breaker is to low It should be a 25 amp The motor does draw a good amount of power
