AFCI breaker neutral too short

The AFCI breaker white wire that is attached to the breaker itself is too short to reach the neutral bar in the main panel even after uncoiling the wire. Ok to wire nut and extend wire to reach neutral bar? Thanks.

Adding a subpanel to a garage !

P

Pavs1029 on Mar 14, 2017

I want to add a subpanel in my garage. I would like to have two 220v circuits and probally two or three 110v circuits for outlets. One of the 220 circuits will be dedicated for a 80 gallon compressor. The other for a welder or whatever down the road. I would like to know what amperage subpanel I should get? What size breaker should I get to feed the subpanel? I have the wire already to feed the subpanel. Any help would be very appreciated.

240 wire questions...

Hello, I'm new here and have a question about 240 wiring. Here's the situation: We recently had a building on our property demolished are in the process of building another one. We had the power run underground from our house breaker box to the old building. When I checked the lines coming from the conduit I saw that all three are black. My questions is how can I check these wires to determine which are the two hot wires? These are coming off a 100 amp breaker and will just power a few small tools in the building. Thanks.
