You are both right dpc and davidbeach.
Welding outlet migt not make sense on emergency.
In this case, we are on a remote Diesel fuel power plant.
In case of an engine incident they might lose power and need in this case to use the electric welder to fix the engine.

Hi,
I am working on a new installation and sizing my feeders and panelboards.
My client requires a 240V 50A output for an electric welder.
This output must be connected to the emergency grid.
I can't get any more information about the actual welder.
How would you calculate the load for this...
