Hello All, I have a 5hp IR compressor I bought 10yrs ago that will overheat and throw the thermal switch on the motor if I let it run for 10-ish minutes like I did this weekend while using a die grinder mostly non-stop. It's always been like this I think and it is just becoming more of a pain...

Hi, I have a 20' x 30' shop with a 10' flat ceiling that is currently bare studs and I am scheduling work for insulation/drywall and I want to get my wiring and lighting sorted first. Worth noting is that the 20' side faces the street and this is where there is a roughly 9' x 18' garage door...
