Most of the modern welders do draw a fair amount of current at full

lot of power to weld tin foil

I'd love to know what you're welding. You can do near everything with one
which runs off a standard 13 amp 230v supply. Commercial ones might use a
16 amp one. Of course if you're welding ships together you'll need
something bigger.

Most domestic UK installations are restricted to 100 amps. Many less.
