If a welder is qualified with a group F2 electrode, the welder is qualified to weld with which electrodes?

If a welder is qualified with a group F2 electrode, the welder is qualified to weld with which electrodes?

• A. E7018 electrodes
• B. E309 electrodes
• C. E6010 electrodes
• D. E4914 electrodes

Answer: (D)

When a welder is qualified to a group, that qualification covers all electrodes within that same group, as defined on the PQR/WPS. If the group is F2, only electrodes that are listed in the F2 group are included in that qualification. Among the options, the E4914 electrode is the one assigned to the F2 group, so the welder is qualified to weld with E4914. The other electrodes belong to different groups or classifications and aren’t automatically covered by an F2 qualification unless the PQR/WPS explicitly allows them. Always check the PQR/WPS to confirm which electrodes are permitted under the qualifying group.
