Arrow I'd bet up high as a greenback dollar you put honest voltmeter on dat circuit and run de welder you see more voltage drop from meter to welder then you see from transformer to meter.
Longer you weld more voltage gonna drop coming into welding machine too.
Settings is just a starting suggestion from manufacturer, and dey set machine up in perfect conditions to develope dem numbers.
Maybe dat right but it only be dat way if man hook it up not have NEC recipie book in pocket. Dat me-sheen sip bout 3500 watt mos daz and bout 4700 watt all out balz to da wall. 250 volt in on 10 ga wire good for 7000 watt all da and two time on Sunday wit out gittin hot.
