Wrapping up some garage wiring. I just know -someday- soon I'll have a welder so I want to make a provision for it now before buttoning up the drywall. Sure don't need anything too fancy and/or expensive, most likely just a small buzz box for stick welding, but I see 220v welders can use different type plugs and don't really know why. So if I'm pre-wiring for a future welder, but need a finished receptacle for inspection now, which type receptacle should I use? Is there a 'higher' probability plug config I should be using for a basic 220v stick welder? Thx
