INSTALLATION
Installation with other Lincoln Power
Sources

Installation consists of connecting the input work
and electrode cables, TIG torch, work lead, the
proper control cable, and an Arc Start Switch or
Amptrol. Tables 6 and 7 list the equipment
required for installing and operating the TIG
Module on various Lincoln power sources.

required for installing and operating the TIG

If the TIG Module is being used for AC TIG
welding, the TIG Module
welding, the TIG Module
’
s input power must be
properly phased with respect to the welder output
current. This would be a front panel 115VAC
receptacle for engine welders. For transformer
welders, the TIG Module must be connected to
the same phase as the welding supply. The best
way to assure this is to connect the TIG Module
input cord, properly fused, to a source of 115VAC
inside the power source. In Lincoln transformer
welders rated 250 amps and higher, this would be
current. This would be a front panel 115VAC
receptacle for engine welders. For transformer
welders, the TIG Module must be connected to
the same phase as the welding supply. The best
way to assure this is to connect the TIG Module
input cord, properly fused, to a source of 115VAC
inside the power source. In Lincoln transformer
welders rated 250 amps and higher, this would be
the supply leads to the fan motor. Although the
TIG Module will operate on a different phase, the
AC TIG arc will be less stable.

If using the K936-2 Input Cable (9-socket to 8
lugged leads), connect the leads at the power
source end of the cable to the matching terminals
on the power source (2 to 2, 4 to 4, etc.).
