ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for welding power includes an input rectifier, a pre-regulator, a convertor, an auxiliary voltage circuit and a controller. The pre-regulator is connected to receive a rectified voltage and provides a dc bus. The convertor converts the bus to a welding output. The auxiliary voltage circuit is connected across the welding output, in parallel with the converter. The controller shuts the converter down in the event an open circuit condition exists at the output, thus providing a safer open circuit voltage.
