A high-quality welding book should cover these technical fundamentals: 1. Electrical Parameters
Books explain when to use edge bevelling. For instance, sheets up to 6mm can often be butt-welded without edge prep, while thicker sheets (up to 26mm) require specific grooves. 3. Standards and Regulations
Sites like TotalArch offer classic textbooks like "Manual Arc Welding" by Malyshev, Melnik, and Getiya.
Typically around 60V–70V to strike the arc.
