Is it posible to turn a AC welder into a DC welder by switching the leads?
Question:By leads; I mean switch the electrode holder with the ground clamp.
Answers:
NO!! A DC welder has a full wave bridge rectifier built in also which is required to create DC weld current.Good Luck!!
ACDC!
No you can't do it just by that. You have to have a diod and a transducer to make it work.
In a word --- NO
turn yourself in to the authorities NOW
before you kill someone !
You will have a much better chance of being electrocuted if you clip your nuts to a car battery and jump into a pool. Oh yeah ACDC !!!
NO! I am sure you could engineer some sort of a high power rectifier but that would cost more than 2 good MiG welders.
