That is how the previous owner did it here on the shop end, except he did the transition in the LB. I didn't read the wires but they were different. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

Thanks for all of the help. I was finally able to get this project done this past weekend. :beer: Alex

Get it tested!

I bought almost all of my connectors, heat shrink tubing, breakers, etc from Ebay and all my wire from Del City when I built my car.

Yep that would be my luck, because I agree so far I do not like this thing. The knockout in the bottom middle fell out at a size too big for what I need. The breakers seem flimsy when installed, and there really is only one configuration for the BR ground bar and neutral when setting it up as a...

I have two questions about my new panel install. #1 I have the panel mounted between two studs plus mounted to 5/8th OSB, also mounted to the studs. Essentially it is a recessed install offset the thickness so that it will be flush when I install the wall covering. I believe code is that the...

What if you put the second switch in series with the first, so that you only need to run 2 wire? Downside would be that when you leave, you need to turn the light back on locally, then again shut it off at the main switch.

I recently bought a Murray breaker from Lowes.com. https://www.lowes.com/search?searchTerm=murray+breaker

I should add I took this advice and will pull 1/1/1/6 through 1.5" conduit. Thanks for the help pattenp.

Ive been making progress on this project. It took me several weekends to dig out the trench needed to bury the line 24". The gravel driveway was full of filler including bricks, asphalt and field stones. When it wasnt filler, it was solid North Carolina clay. Anyway that is done now it is...

I will not back stab the new outlets I put in. :)

WOW, just WOW...

Nope, not sure and I was wrong... they are 15 amp. The top breaker is for the light (one light switch) and the bottom is for the outlets. Siemens panel, NM wiring throughout. Here are some pictures... I am going to go read the link you shared. IMG_20170819_103438 by Alex Pingel, on Flickr...

I have a shop that has a 25 amp subpanel with two 10 amp breakers. One breaker connects the lights and the other to the 5-6 110v outlets in the shop. The shop and subsequent wiring are from somewhere between 1975 and 1990 I guess. I bought the property in Feb this year and had the home...

Does this stuff make your roof hotter? Seems like it would shorten the life of your roof. Thanks, Alex

Ill save you 100 bucks and the headache of install by confirming this, and adding that a gable fan won't help. 2 weekends ago I installed one, and have noticed it only slows the rise of the temperature and really only works in the first truss area. Here is a shot from my thermal camera with the...

Make sure to go through the wall for added effect... err to slow the car down and stick the landing.

Nice!!!! I probably would have stayed and watched it eat the whole thing.

haha, good point!
