Someone is offering to sell me one of these tig welders. If I have typical house electrical wiring what would I need to do to power this welder?
Thanks in advance Jim R.

460/575 volts?If so, I would pass.

You will need a clean 60 amp circuit of 220 volt Single phase.

What are you talking about? I didn't see anything from the original poster about 460v/575v power. The Syncrowave 180SD is a little hobby TIG not an old industrial monster machine. It runs on 208v - 230v single phase only.

They got it from the Subject: line.

Now admittedly, my newsreader truncates the subject line too. I had to go into full header mode to see it. Looks like the original poster is either mistaken, or something really weird is going on.

It's available in two flavors.
The 208 - 230 V:

The 361f version below - is the high voltage version. MIL - Is this Naval or Army..... ???
I have the 208/220 version in my shop and use it monthly.
I make targets for rifle and pistol - needing the 11018 stick. Just opened a 50# tin I have had for a while - and they were dry and ready. I thought by then the can would have a hole.
