Preferably, Any industrial or commercial welding machine now is DC only, unless its a middle of the road or high end TIG unit, in which case it would also have the AC function for TIG welding aluminum, but most of these can also stick weld on AC although theres really no reason to and virtually nobody ever does.
DO NOT GET THE LINCOLN 7018AC from Home Depot, literally the worse electrode I've ever used. Lincoln has a "homeowner" line of goods that they sell at the big box stores which are garbage. Absolute, and pure garbage compared to their usual products that you buy online or from a welding supply store. The Hobart 7018AC from tractor supply is supposedly better, but my store never had any in stock so I just used regular 7018 until I bought a DC welder. It worked just fine, don't let the keyboard commandos steer you away from it. Especially if you get the larger 5/32 rods and run them at 160-180 amps, thats really best but dont try it on steel thinner than about 5/16 unless you want to clean up a mess. I hope this helps!
