Unlike single-carbon arc welding, in twin-carbon arc welding the arc is maintained between two carbon electrodes held in a special holder. The Ac current was usually used. It was switched on by operating bringing to welectrodes closer by a mechanism which also adjusted arc length. The two electrodes touch momentarily, then separate and thus an arc is established. TCAW is unshielded and no artificial pressure is applied.
