English term
weld up
English
Tech/Engineering
Engineering (general)
** To convert 220V to 110V, disconnect b and c and weld up a and b instead. **
Does "weld up a and b" mean that it's actually a welding operation or soldering a and b together or just joinging a and b together manually ?
Many thanks

It means 'weld a and B together'

The 'up' almost certainly has no specific significance, unless it just so happens that the weld line a–b is vertically-oriented

Of course, in fact, the English is almost certainly defective, as normally for electrical connections it would indeed be 'solder' and not 'weld'
