What ranges of voltage require in butt welding ?

  • A.22 to 30 Volt
  • B.2 to 8 Volt
  • C.8 to 15 Volt
  • D.15 to 22 Volt

Answer: B

The keyed range is 2 to 8 volts.

Butt welding here is resistance butt welding, in which the two pieces are pressed end to end and a very large current is passed through the joint. The heat comes from the contact resistance (I2R), so the welding transformer delivers thousands of amperes at only a few volts, typically under 10 V.

The higher ranges, 15 to 22 V and 22 to 30 V, are typical arc voltages in arc welding, where an arc must be maintained across a gap. They are far more than resistance welding needs.
