System and device operating using a welding power bus

Abstract:

A system and device operating using a welding power bus are provided. One welding power supply includes control circuitry configured to control the operation of the welding power supply and power conversion circuitry configured to convert input power to output welding power. The welding power supply also includes welding terminals configured to receive the output welding power from the power conversion circuitry and to provide the output welding power to a device that does not use the welding power for a welding operation. The control circuitry is configured to adapt the output welding power to the device.
