See ASTM specifications A5.17 and A5.23

The best place to compare filler metal properties is the manufacturers specification for the material. Lincoln electric has a website that posts all of their material specicications. The short route is to contact a local supplier, or representative. They will give you exactly what you are loking for, and usually some of the best service available.
 
Right now i am working on Narrow groove welding of Carbon Steel (SA 516 Gr. 70) for 100 mm and above.
I donot want to go for Backing strip method. Hence prefer the Back gouging method.

Wanted to know from where can i get the Groove design detail and the consumable detail along with the current and voltage , speed settings for the same.
 
Once again the manufacturers specifications for the specific filler metal will be your best resource. I highly recommend a visit to Linclon electrics website. Brouse around the filler metal specifications and see how the parameters are detailed. This is the bread and butter of WPS parameters right there.
 
If you haven't already called Lincoln, I also, suggest you do so. I'd ask for Lon Yost with Tech support.
