ARC WELDING
In arc welding the workpieces are not melted by a flame. They are melted by an electric arc. In order to
create the arc, a powerful electric current must be provided. The current must be at least 60 A. otherwise the arc
will not create enough heat. For thicker workpieces, the current may be 250 A. In order to earn this current, the
cables from the transformer should be quite thick or else they will overheat. To supply the necessary current the
transformer is used and to complete the electric circuit an earth clamp is used, which is attached to the
workpiece. Then the current flows around the circuit and the arc appears. It must be securely attached,
otherwise an arc will appear between the clamp and the workpiece. To strike the arc. the transformer should be
switched on first. The electrode holder contains an electrode rod which provides the filler metal to join the
workpieces. As the current flows between the electrode and the workpiece, the tip of the electrode melts and
falls onto the workpiece. The electrode must be moved across the joint continuously, if it is moved too quickly
neither the electrode nor the workpiece will melt.
While choosing an electrode type it is necessary to know:
a. Position to which the workpiece is to be welded.
b. Type and thickness of metal used.
c. Type of welding current.
d. Class of work: deep penetration, surface quality, etc.

This morning, I just woke up and started thinking about this event. It was the Day of our city. I was invited to the centre of the city, for my friends knew that I liked the things like going to the festivals. This one has been organized by a company.
When I came there, everything had already been prepared. The centre of our city had been decorated with many things which surprised me much. Some my friends rang me up, because I didn't see them anywhere. Later, I realized that I had not been attentive. Though, I should admit there was very crowdy. Anyway, we've met. They said they had never found their city as such a nice one. Frankly, I was by their side.
So, as I said before, everything had been okay until... So, some time went by, and it started to rain. None expected it could rain that day. Anyways, it didn't make us unhappy. We've seen a great concert, thus everyone was satisfied.
