Hello everyone just got back from HD purchased some elec stuff
100 amp panel with some 20 amp breakers in with it Square D brand I plan on trying to find a 90 amp breaker for the house panel to feed the 100 amp sub
the HD has some 80 amp breakers would that be enough for a small shop?
why I'm asking I have #2 4 wire aluminum direct bury and some of the elec forums I have looked at there is some confusion about 100 amp and #2 aluminum wire with the codes I just want to be safe and get a 90 amp or 80 amp.
As of now I only have 1 tool that rus off 120/220 but when I replace some of my old tools down the road, I plan to get some 220(cab TS, DC,ex ex). I'm going to wire 10/3 and space them through the shop and have them for when the need arises.
I also purchased 10 4' shop lites Hope thats enough light for a 20x24 building.
and I will have outlets every 6' and 52" off the floor.
Thank you Jim
