    Great expalnation of this process! Do you know if the diodes can be doubled up or ganged? For example can 2 100 amp diodes be used to pass 200 amps? I would think 8 in a bank would work, just not real sure about it. Tahnks.

    Muy bueno el conjunto Hunter similar al que fabriqué solamente que utilice 2 diodos de 260 Amp. y 1000 voltios se comporta excelente con electrodos comunes en aceros y en soldaduras de acero inoxidable, felicitaciones por el proyecto.
