Change: There are two different types of power sources that you'll encounter on a regular basis. They are:Constant Current (CC) - The total welding Current stays the same while the voltage varies.Constant Voltage (CV) - The arc voltage remains constant at the selected setting while the current varies.Different View changes from previous version.

Change: 60 cycles a second.Each of these types of current have different sub-types that we will eventually discuss. For now the important thing to know is that electricity flows from the positive pole, to the negative one, and that we can use this flow to our advantage. View changes from previous version.
