ignition spots/marks
On the basis of the following:
Ljusbågen skall alltid tändas nere i fogen för att inte tändsår skall bildas. Om tändsår ändå uppstår måste dessa repareras noggrant genom slipning och polering eller i värsta fall genom svetslagning.

4.5 Welding defects as well as welding spatter and ignition spots on the base material are to be removed by careful grinding.
http://www.freeweb.gr/bulletins/nb/lawctd603.pdf
... welded joints, and surfaces around welds, must be free of discontinuities such as cracks, poor penetration, end craters, ignition marks or overrun welds.
Ignition marks, weld spatter and slag residues must be carefully removed.

Good arc ignition and reigniting characteristics
No ignition scratch marks in the base material (less grinding repair)
