The characteristics (4), (5) and (6) shown here apply when using a rod electrode
whose characteristic corresponds to the load line (1) at a given arc length.
Depending on what welding current (I) has been set, the point of intersection
(operating point) of characteristics (4), (5) and (6) will be displaced along the load
line (1). The operating point provides information on the actual welding voltage
and the actual welding current.
Where the welding current (I
1
) is permanently set, the operating point may mi-
grate along the characteristics (4), (5) and (6) depending on the welding voltage
at that moment in time. The welding voltage U is dependent upon the arc length.
If the arc length changes, e.g. in accordance with the load line (2), the resulting
operating point will be the point where the corresponding characteristic (4), (5)
or (6) intersects with the load line (2).
Applies to characteristics (5) and (6): Depending upon the welding voltage (arc
length), the welding current (I) will also become either smaller or larger, even
though the value set for I
1
remains the same.
