Two plates of the same metal having equal thickness are to be butt welded with electric arc. When the plate thickness changes, welding is achieved by

  • A.Adjusting the current
  • B.Adjusting the duration of current
  • C.Changing the electrode size
  • D.Changing the electrode coating

Answer: C

Electric arc welding is a welding process wherein coalescence is produced by heating with an arc, with or without the use of filler metals. No filler metal is used in butt weld. So, when the plate thickness changes, welding are achieved by changing the electrode size.
