Okay got all the boxes and conduit in. Time to pull wire and wire it all. The 4x4 boxes are 2” deep but look to be kind of full. I know most are big fans of pigtailing. But I have spec grade “industrial” grade receptacles. How a bought just feeding through the hots through the outlets and...

Only have a couple of 3 feet runs. Planning on just THHN 12 gauge x3. I thought about MC but it should be a simple pull for those short of distances. Why do you ask?

correct. for the bench. Just wondering if it's overkill to run a ground wire to each box since the boxes will all be bonded together through the flex EMT and the lead box where I will put a power inlet plug will be bonded to the incoming ground...

Didn't want this question to get lost in the fun...

I will be sending apocalyptic and biblical amounts of power through this circuit. So the 480V sounds like the way to go as a start. My local electric co is a little reluctant right now to swing a 48kV line over to the house but I am confident they will come around...

Also, looking for the hardwired circuit to use flex emt and properly connect into each 4" metal box. If each run of the flex is under 6 feet and it is properly bonded to the two or three boxes I am putting in the workbench would it be a problem (other than more work) to pig tail the ground in...

That arrangement will take some extra effort to work in the OP's garage. Well, actually, in an adjacent storage room there is a 240 20A circuit receptacle that I could plug into, it just makes the extension cord longer and a little unwieldy. So probably will stick with TWO circuits. A power...

WELL. Realistically sometime I will be rolling the workbench outside and then I need an extension cord to plug into whatever power strip option I end up with. So do I find a 12gauge extension cord to plug into the final strip(s)?

not a particularly **** topic but one of interest as I am wiring up a movable 8' workbench with some power added to it. Because it is on wheels it won't have fixed power coming to it(conduit, etc). In the garage there is one 120v 20amp circuit with 12 awg wiring to each receptacle. How does 1...

The unit you are quoting has an internal "propeller" type of fan. The unit that has a BLOWER is considerably more expensive and moves air considerably more. Just don't know if the extra 1.5k$ is worth it...

New house to me, Live at 7500 feet in the mountains of Colorado. 3 car garage with deep bays and garage walls are very well insulated. Currently has probably a 20 year old Modine LP fired 30kBTU COMMERCIAL unit hanging from the ceiling. When we had the propane company transfer over to us they...
