Check the wiring at the transformer to see that it is ok. Check to see that the transformer is plugged in and its outlet is receiving power.

wiring sub panel to shed

H

hambone7731 on Aug 30, 2003

I am running power to my shed (shop). I plan to have 2 110 ACs , 2 large lights, Fans , 110 air compresser, other misc. tools. My shed is about 30' from the main panel. In the past someone has came out of the main box outside and ran a 2nd 100 amp circut to a 2nd panel box outside. Out of this 2nd box they have ran a 50amp breaker to double oven. A 30 amp to cook top, And 30 to 220 AC. Is this the right way for it to be done and if so how do I proceed with wiring my shed the cheapest yet safe way? What size wire and breaker out of 2nd panel? What size panel in shed with what size breakers in it? What should be ran on each circut out of panel in shed? THANKS 4 your help!!!Read More

pole barn sub panel

I'm planning a 60 amp sub panel run from the house main panel off a 60 amp double breaker. I'm thinking of three #6 copper conductors (2 hot, 1 nuetral), plus ground wire and running thru 1 1/4" PVC underground, about 80 feet to the sub panel. The sub panel then would be grounded to two rods. Questions---- #1-What is the minimum size bare copper ground I should run from the house? I'm thinking #8, maybe #10?? #2-What size ground wire should be used for the grounding at the sub panel to the rods? #3-The #6 copper wires have to have a W in the wire name right (ex. THWN)? #4-60 amp sub panels that are in stores, seem to be limited to a max. of 4 breakers and don't have a main 60 amp breaker? Are these available or should I just get a 100 amp panel ( is a 100 amp panel ok?) so I can have more spaces? thank you.Read More
