Thank you. And you provided more as well. I noticed Lowe’s only had schedule 40 and figured HD would be the same. I was looking at 1 1/2” too.

Thanks for the feedback. I went that route and finished the breaker box swap out - with the correct breakers. It looks good and appreciate the suggestion for the time savings.

Thanks to everyone for the feedback. It was very helpful!

Thanks for the observation. I had no idea on their reputation. I’m not impressed with their website to get spec info, etc. I’m also a little miffed at the electrician right now for a couple of items, some of them here, but also now recalling the lead-up to hiring him. He had good...

That is correct - PVC underground from the exterior sub panel on the house to the garage panel coming up in the slab through the base/sill plate.

Thanks for the welcome dawg. I appreciate it and your response. I totally spaced off that it is 220V 60 A. That makes total sense. I had a feeling that I would need to change the cabinet outside of a separate circuit as cmandp suggested. Good call on the GFCI breakers in the garage cabinet, that...

I saw the 75A as well and agree. Thanks.

Hi, first time post and short term member. Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions. I am starting a detached garage project in north Texas (east of Dallas). My town has adopted NEC 2020. I plan on doing all of the work except concrete and masonry and have secured a permit - not flying...
