Abstract
The present application relates to an electric arc welding method to be used with an arc welding arrangement () comprising a first power source, a first electrode () connected to said first power source, and a second electrode (), said first electrode () being adapted to generate a weld pool () via a first electric arc present within a first arc region () and said second electrode () being adapted to generate said weld pool via a second electric arc present within a second arc region. The first electrode () is operated at welding parameters adapted to maintain said first arc ignited. The second electrode () is operated at welding parameters adapted to ensure that excess energy from at least said first electrode () is required to maintain said second arc ignited. The method comprises the step of feeding said second electrode () so that it is allowed to consume excess energy from said first electrode () to maintain said second arc ignited. The invention also relates to an arc welding arrangement () for carrying out the method.
