Why is the welding arc not stable on my Chicago Electric Welding System?
- RRichard WashingtonJul 29, 2025
An unstable welding arc in your Chicago Electric Welding System can stem from several causes: * The wire may not be feeding properly. * The contact tip size may be incorrect; consider replacing it with the proper tip for the wire being used. * The wire feed speed may be incorrect; try adjusting it to achieve a more stable arc. * The torch cable or ground cable might be loose; ensure all connections are tight. * The torch may be damaged, or there may be a loose connection within it; in this case, have a qualified technician inspect and repair or replace it as necessary.
