Garage circuits
Want to create two to three additional circuits in my garage, need to run from my main panel off individual breakers, circuits to operate a 220 volt compressor, a 115 v welder and the third circuit to handle additional 115 recepticales. I have to make this run outside through conduit to get to the garage. Can I run multiple circuit through the same piece of conduit?

Tech note: You have nominal voltages of 120 and 240 not 115 and 220.

Best if you install a sub-panel "Feeder" to the garage; you'll need only four conductors, service-to-panel, and you'll provide a provision for future garage circuits; also, if a breaker "trips" no need to return to the Service panel to restore power.
