What does "dig" do when welding using the SMAW Process? It provides additional voltage when the arc voltage decreases It provides additional amperage when the arc voltage decreases It provides additional voltage regardless of arc voltage to assure a "driving" type arc It provides additional inductance when the current level drops

## Step 1<br />The question is asking about the function of the "dig" setting in Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW). The "dig" setting is a feature on some welding machines that provides additional voltage to the welding arc. This is done regardless of the arc voltage to ensure a "driving" type arc.<br /><br />## Step 2<br />The "dig" setting is not about providing additional amperage when the arc voltage decreases, nor is it about providing additional inductance when the current level drops. It is specifically about providing additional voltage to ensure a stable and consistent arc.
