If you have a spa that is 240V with 4 wires can you hook an extension cord from a 240V welder to it to see if it works if the cord only has three wires?

Well, maybe. What is the current rating on the spa circuit? What is the current rating on the welder? If the welder is larger than the outlet, then no. It must be the other way around. If the current ratings are OK, then yes. Your welder doesn't need 110V so it doesn't connext to neutral. Connect the hot leads to hot and ground to ground.

Why should you not plug a surge protector into an extension cord?
As long as you don't over load the wall socket you can have a mile's worth of extension cord. <<>> You can not have a miles worth of cord as the voltage drop would be so high on a #14 wire that there would not be enough voltage to run the computer. Make sure that the extension cord has a ground wire in it so that the ground wire is continuous from the receptacle to the surge protector to the computer.
What does bus mean in electronics?
A bus is a group of wires, of a number that is compatible with the size of data that the computer works with. If the computer works in bytes then the bus would have to be 8 wires wide. If the computer works in Words then the bus would have to be 16 wires wide. If the computer works in double Words then the bus would have to be 32 wires wide. and so on. This allows the computer to send a 'block' of related information at a time. Now there are several different devices in a computer's hardware that may all work with the same size of data. So it would (or does) make sense to use one bus for all such transfers between these devices, otherwise you would have a lot more wires in a computer than what you really need. So devices share the bus. Only the source and destination device are enabled for use at the same time while all other devices are disabled.
Why does a Dodge block heater trip a GFI outlet?
99% it is a defective blockheater, it works like an element it shorts out & trips the GFI, i would also check the extension cord & if possible try a different plug, if it still trips, its the blockheater.

What would be a good question to write for the topic of learning to be a welder?
If one is writing a paper on how one learns to be a welder, it might be a good idea to start with what a welder does and what kinds of construction projects a welder works on. In addition, touching on the test one must take to become a welder would be important. Finally, one might want to discuss the differences between an apprentice, a journeyman and a master welder.
