Why is the alarm light on my gala gar Welding System on?
- K
  kcameronAug 16, 2025
  The alarm light may be on due to several reasons: * **Overheat protection:** Reduce the welding current output. * **Working time too long:** Reduce the duty cycle by working intermittently. * **Over/Low-voltage protection:** Use a stable power supply. * **Too many machines using power supply at the same time:** Reduce the number of machines using the power supply simultaneously. * **Over-current protection:** Check and repair the main circuit and drive PCB.
