Want to know if this is feasible. I have a 30a 220v ran on 10/2 45' in the shop. I actually need 2 plugs at this location, so in lieu of running another run of 10/2 and another breaker, I was going to put in a junction box and run to 2 separate receptacles with short "pigtails"? 1 plug is for a Miller 185 Mig welder, the other for a Thermal Dynamics Cutmaster 42 plasma. I could never operate both at the same time, but could have both "on", but not total draw on both at the same time. Thanks

Hi - I have a couple electrical projects I want to do and need some advice. The first is to add 3 or 4 outlets and a light/switch in my garage. After browsing the forum, I see that adding a new 20 amp GFCI breaker, and using 12-2 wire would be by best option? If so, will the plugs and switch need to be 20 amp? The next thing is to add exterior outlets in the front and rear of the house. I was thinking that I could connect to the interior outlets on the opposite side of the wall. Is this ok to do? The exterior walls are concrete block, so I would drill a hole for the wire and mount the new box on the exterior. These are both bedrooms and are on 15 amp circuits. Assuming this is ok to do, I would use 15 amp GFCI outlets. The one in the front would be used for landscape lighting, and the one in the rear would be used for a small pool pump. Thanks
