I am planning on running a 20ft line for my new to me Lincoln Squarewave 175. The Lincoln manual recommends a 100 amp breaker with #10 copper wire or 125 amp breaker with #8 copper wire. The latter is for AC Tig Welding at 150 amp and 25% duty cycle.
Usually a 50 amp circuit is #8 wire. What gives??
