The honey has been wanting to do some home renovation as of late, and before she starts knocking down walls, I needed to get a nice safe power supply in place for my garage.
26 FT of THHN 6Gauge wire out to through the wall to the garage. 2-Black 1-White, and a 10Gauge green ground wire for the pannel
I had to use about 30 zip ties to get the wires to forget they weren't on a spool anymore, and should lay straight.
The old fuse pannel. I had to delete an ADT Alarm breaker, move the basement lights to it, pull off the garage plugs, shuffle some breakers, and open up a space for my two 110 phases.
My new EATON subpannel in place, with the wires all connected
The first line (Garage plugs) terminated and operational!
Nice and happy
Total cost: $180 (Wire, subpannel, food)
Total time: 4:00
