Welding is a material joining process which produces coalescence
of materials by heating them to suitable temperatures with or
without the application of pressure or by the application of
pressure alone, and with or without the use of filler
material.WELDING

PART OF ARC WELDING MACHINE
The secondary of the supply transformer and case of any portable
welding transformer as well as the frame must be grounded. DO NOT
GROUND TO PIPELINES CARRYING FLAMMABLE GASES OR LIQUIDS OR TO
CONDUITS CARRYING ELECTRICAL CONDUCTORS.Handling and Use of Arc
Welding Machine SOP
2.Dry all wet machines. Do not stand in water or on wet ground
while welding.3.Check the whole length of the welding cables for
exposed conductors, damaged insulation and slices.
4.Check electrode holder for loose or exposed connections to
reduce shock hazard.5.Do not loop welding cables around your
body.6.Do not change the polarity switch with the machine is under
load.
7.Welding machines should be equipped with power disconnect
witch in case of emergency.Electrode holders should be kept away
from electrical power sources.When no welding is to be performed,
all electrodes must be removed from the holders and the machine
disconnected from the power source.
Failure to follow the procedures outlined in this presentation
could result in physical and property damage. Miss use of equipment
and poor work practices can result in fires, explosions as well as
severe skin burns and eye damage.Many welding operations produce
toxic fumes and gases. It is extremely important that the health
hazards of the materials worked on are known and that the
appropriate precautions are taken. IT MAY BE NECESSARY TO CONSULT
OTHER SOURCES FOR THE NECESSARY SAFETY PRACTICES TO BE FOLLOWED
WHEN WORKING WITH POTENTIALLY TOXIC METALS AND METAL ALLOYS.
