ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and a method for controlling the exciter current in a welding generator such that the open circuit voltage of the generator is regulated within suitable limits prior to arc start. A voltage controlled relay is connected to the generator's output and controls the inclusion of a voltage regulated biasing circuit in the base circuit of a transistor connected in series in the exciter circuit to assure that when the voltage exceeds a preset level of the voltage controlled relay, the exciter current will remain substantially constant.
