2.3 Connection

The equipment is provided with a power supply cable for con-
nection to the mains.
The system can be powered by:
- single-phase 115V
- single-phase 230V
CAUTION: to prevent injury to persons or damage
to the equipment, the selected mains voltage and
fuses must be checked BEFORE connecting the
machine to the mains. Also check that the cable is
connected to a socket provided with earth contact.
Operation of the equipment is guaranteed for volt-
age tolerances up to ±15% with respect to the
rated value.
In order to protect users, the equipment must be
correctly earthed. The power supply voltage is pro-
vided with an earth lead (yellow - green), which
must be connected to a plug provided with earth
contact.
The electrical connections must be made by
skilled technicians with the specific professional
and technical qualifications and in compliance
with the regulations in force in the country where
the equipment is installed.
The power source supply cable is provided with a yellow/
green wire that must ALWAYS be earthed. This yellow/green
wire shall NEVER be used with other voltage conductors.
Verify the existence of the earthing in the equipment used
and the good condition of the sockets.
Install only certified plugs according to the safety regula-
tions.

2.4 Installation

Connection for MMA welding
The connection shown in the figure produces
reverse polarity welding. To obtain straight polarity
welding, reserve the connection.

3 SYSTEM PRESENTATION

3.1 General

The Genesis 1700 AC/DC - Genesis 2200 AC/DC are constant cur-
rent inverter power sources developed for electrode (MMA), TIG
DC (direct current) and TIG AC (alternating current) welding.
They are fully digital multiprocessor systems (data processing on
DSP and communication over CAN-BUS), capable of meeting
the various requirements of the welding world in the best pos-
sible way.
