The new shop is coming along nicely. Basically it is a brick, one car garage about 12 feet wide by 24 feet long, 10 feet from the house, and maybe 20 feet from the houses service panel.
The service panel on the house is 100 amp service. The garage has no service yet. I am looking at putting a sub panel in the garage to handle the shop requirements, which are as follows....
1) 110/220 table saw
2) 110/220 Inca Jointer planer.
3) 6 new outlets evenly spaced around the perimeter of the shop for various smaller tools.
4) Power for shop lighting, say 4 8' floresents?
So I know that a subpanel is needed. My question is, If I am pulling power from the house, how do I configure the set up?
Is the 100 amp service at the house, enough to also power the shop requirements? (two 220 vac circuts, shop lighting, and multiple shop outlets?)
I will go into the code issues and permitting etc, once I get an electrition out to give bids. But what I am trying to do here with this post, is to get a feel for what I might be up against.
Is a 100 amp service panel, that does have space left in it, enough to power the shop safely?
If so, what does that configuration look like in your estimation? Again, I am going to have an electrition come out and bid this out, and do the work. Just looking at what needs to happen to get power to the shop.
