ABSTRACT:
A welding DC power supply system suitable for consumable or non-consumable electrode welding, including plural inverter units for converting a first direct current into an alternate current and for rectifying the alternate current to produce an output of a second direct current; a circuit connecting the output of terminals of the inverter units in parallel; a detection circuit for detecting the total output current of the inverter units; and a circuit for varying the number of operating inverter units according to the value of the detected total output current. According to other aspects of the invention, the power supply system is further provided with a phase control means for controlling the phases of alternate currents produced by the respective inverter units, or means for selectively actuating a particular inverter unit or units in a short circuit period of large current in dip transfer welding, or feedback means for suppressing the current in a controlled timing in the final stage of each short circuit period to prevent spattering as caused by bursting rupture of the large short circuit current.
