Arc Welding Plugs and Sockets

Arc welding plugs and sockets are single-pole connection elements made for high current that provide a detachable connection between the output of a welding machine and the welding cable, or between two welding cables. They are used to connect electrode holder and ground clamp cables to the machine, to extend welding cables, and to plug and unplug cables quickly in workshops and on construction sites. In this category, a Bemis rubber-housing series is offered in 200 A and 400 A rated currents as a plug, extension socket and machine socket, with IP55 protection rating and MS 58 brass contacts. First choose the rated current that suits the welding machine's output current, then the model that suits the cross-section of the welding cable; the 200 A types are defined by the 16/95 mm² cable cross-section group and the 400 A types by the 50/150 mm² group. These products are for the welding current circuit and cannot replace the CEE standard plugs and sockets used on the machine's mains supply.
