SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR WELD PROCESS SELECTION AND ISOLATION FROM A VOLTAGE SENSING WIRE FEEDER

Systems and methods are disclosed for automatically isolating a gouging power output from a welding power output responsive to a weld process selection. In particular, the disclosed systems and methods provide isolation circuitry to isolate the welding power output from the gouging power output, such that power conversion circuitry provides the gouging power to the gouging power output and prevents any power to the welding power output
