This section of IEC 60974 is dedicated to WELDING CURRENT RETURN CLAMPS intended for use in arc welding procedures, which are engineered to establish an electrical connection with the workpiece without the need for tools. The scope of this document does not extend to WELDING CURRENT RETURN CLAMPS used for underwater welding or plasma cutting applications. This document establishes the safety and performance criteria for WELDING CURRENT RETURN CLAMPS. It does not, however, delineate requirements for welding cables.
