This is one that should be left for a qualified person. As the job can effect life and limb a permit should be taken out and the job inspected. Failure to do this can leave you responsible if someone should get hurt due to faulty wiring or practices. Sorry, get an electrician and insist he takes out a permit and an inspection is done.

How do you hook up a three phase welder?

Easy as one,two and three. There are four primary wires coming from you service panel.(provided you have three phase service) you can check by looking at the weather head on the roof. if it has three wires you have single phase but if it has four then you have three phase. the hot wires will be black,red and brown. the neutral will be white or green. the welder should have a manual that will give you the lead phase wire(most likely black to black) the other two hot wires can hook to any other hot wire. The neutral goes to the white or green and posts to the panel. If the welder has a switching power supply then you must have a three phase converter.


How do you hook up a live wire into two switches?

First turn off the power. You can do it a couple of ways. Take your black hot wire and connect two black pigtail wires of the correct gauge to the wire via a wirenut. Then connect each of the two pigtails to each switch. Another way if the supply wire is long enough you can strip about 1/2 inch off about 4 inches from the end. Make a "U-shaped" bend in the stripped area and put that around one switch and strip the end and connect to the other switch.

Do you need to hook up a load wire?

The load is essentially what consumes electrons. For example a load on a light circuit would be a bulb. Therefore, if you don't hook up a load you aren't doing anything. It is like turning on a light switch without a bulb. It may give you some minor exercise, but it doesn't do anything useful.
