The 'secondary' circuit of the welder can put out 90 amps, tho at less than 30 volts. That's the electrode & ground end you're actually welding with.
But the 'primary' circuit of the welder (which draws the power from your outlet) only needs no more than a 20 amp outlet, and drawing 120 volts.
It's not like an electric stove where it's drawing 50 amps (on the primary) and where you'd need a 50 amp circuit & outlet.

The wire that comes with this is junk. My hot take, on these budget welders, the wire is as important as the machine. It is like putting a cheap blade on a saw.
The FC-90 is made by Century. Lincoln Electric just owns the brand. LE welders are amazing and while this is a great little welder, it is NOT a Lincoln.
Yes, I have used wire welders like this for building honeybee stands out of 3/16" vertical L-shaped storage rack scraps. Welded for hours a day and it worked just fine. In fact, incredibly effective for light metal usage.
I must give credit to my metal shop industrial arts teacher who taught me how to weld nearly 50 years ago.
Keep up the good job!
PS If anyone here is welding for anything more than a couple of hours, use the full face shield and sun screen on exposed parts of your skin. I forgot and wore goggles...and my forehead looked like a tomatoed and peeled for days!

The wire provided is all position wire. You can weld flat/horizontal/vertical ect.
All low power welders are rebranded Chinese machines.
I used to work in the industry, it's not worth it to design and test low end machines.
last week before the sale for $100. It's basically the same as this. I used on a 200ft cord outside in the heatno problems.

I heard from some reviews that they don't include an accurate chart for settings and metal thickness so it's a big guessing game.
