Hi Just been given an arc welder in good working condition I tried it out at home in my shed plugged into an extension lead from the house but it keeps tripping the electric. What has gone wrong?

what is the amp rating on your welder vs, the amp rating on your circuit breaker?

Thanks everyone. Tried it out in the workshop at work & it is running ok. The Extension Lead seems to have been the trouble. CJ
