A method and apparatus for improved percussive arc welding is disclosed. In this technique a test arc of a voltage no greater than the initiating voltage of the percussive arc welding is first applied across the pieces to be welded. The welding cycle is then performed if, and only if, an arc is detected responsive to the impressing of the test voltage.
