Troubleshooting - Sealey 160XT.V2 Instructions Manual

8.9.
Earthing of the workpiece. It is important that the workpiece is separately bonded to earth in addition to the welder/cutter return
cable. Where the workpiece is not bonded to earth for electrical safety reasons or because of its size and position, e.g. ship's hull or
building steelwork, a connection bonding the workpiece to earth may reduce emissions in some, but not all instances. Care should be
taken to prevent the earthing of the workpiece increasing the risk of injury to others or damage to other electrical equipment.
Where necessary, the connection of the workpiece to earth should be made by a direct connection to the workpiece, but in some
countries where direct connection is not permitted, the bonding should be achieved by a suitable capacitance, selected according to
national regulations.
8.10.
Screening and shielding. Selective screening and shielding of other cables and equipment in the surrounding area may alleviate
problems of interference. Screening of the entire welding/cutting installation may be considered for special applications.
