D) the base plate as far as possible from

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To achieve complete root fusion, the arc should be moved as close as possible to the leading edge of the weld pool. This creates the necessary heat and energy to ensure that the filler metal completely fuses with the base metal, creating a strong, secure weld. Moving the base plate away from the weld pool, as in choice D, would increase the risk of incomplete fusion due to insufficient heat.
