    250amp’?

    I assume 25amp

    Lots of variables

    How long is the cable run

    How easy is access/cable installation

    Is your current setup capable of taking an additional load

    Best option is to contact a local rec for a quote

    250 amp inverter mig welder

    Cable run just 3-5 m

    easy setup beside the house own main fuse box.

    My current setup isnt ready,because it needs a seperate breaker and socket

    See how you get on with a smaller inverte welder on a 13amp socket . I RAN large mig on 16amp for years.., modern inverters are much more gentle on the cables
