Welding Machine Load Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Welding Machine Load (WML) is:

\[ \text{WML} = \frac{P \times T}{1000} \]

Where:

\( \text{WML} \) is the welding machine load (kWh)
\( P \) is the power consumption of the welding machine (watts)
\( T \) is the operational hours (hours)

What is a Welding Machine Load?

A Welding Machine Load is a measure of the total electricity used by a welding machine during a given period. It is calculated by multiplying the power consumption of the welding machine by the number of hours it is in operation. The result is expressed in kilowatt-hours (kWh), which represents the amount of energy consumed.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Power Consumption (P) = 5000 watts
Operational Hours (T) = 4 hours

Using the formula to calculate the Welding Machine Load:

\[ \text{WML} = \frac{5000 \times 4}{1000} = 20 \text{ kWh} \]

The Welding Machine Load (WML) is 20 kWh.
