Thermocouple and pin capacitor discharge welding
Thanks to all for the information: If my company was to request a change that would allow the use of higher watt seconds for non long arc stud welding, how would I go about this? I would need to address Code: B31.1, B31.3, Section 1, section VIII all divisions, BPV 1 etc. Thanks again- jmart23

Thermocouple and pin capacitor discharge welding
Almost all codes give the maximum of 125 watt seconds (Joules) for attaching thermocouples and insulation pins to code parts using capacitor discharge welding. How was this limit reached? is it perhaps a carry-over from the withdrawal arc welding that was used prior to the introduction of CDW...- jmart23
