I had an application where the tab used for bonding the sheet metal
cover was spot welded to the cover. Inside were conductors protected
at 125A. I was wondering how many spot welds might be needed to ensure
that a ground fault wouldn't simply blow the spots off before tripping
the breaker.
I have seen a case where two spot welds were specified on the grounds
that one is insufficiently reliable. But you simply have to test such
arrangements, and test several samples.
