Please let me know if this question is posted in the wrong location. I am new and this was my best guess.
The situation
I have a heavy duty electric cord with the proper connection to connect my welder to my generator.
Unfortunately, the welder is a three prone and it needs to connect to the plugin that goes into a four prone outlet on the generator.
My question
How do I hook up the three prone to the four? From the schematic I can tell which is the ground. So I know that from the three prone welder I hook the round ground to the "G" ground on the generator.
What do I do about the other two wires![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Any help would be really amazing since I am pretty confused about the hookups.
For reference
The three prone looks like this. It is a Lincoln Electric AC-225C Arc Welder.
The outlet that I want to convert to looks like this. It is a Honda Model EM5000SX Generator showing the 240 Volt outlet.
