None of my current 220 tools in the shop use/need a 30 amp circuit. They all run on a 20 Amp individual circuit and I haven't ever had a problem. The run length is short, under 50 feet at most so that helps I'm sure.

Current 220 tools include SawStop, Planer, Jointer, and Dust Collector. None of these will be upgraded that I'm aware of since I'm happy with all of them.

I don't own a big compressor and might like one but don't have a need today.

What tools might I need up with that would/could require 30 amp.

I ask the question because I'm wiring the shop and then dry walling it. Trying to decide if I should run 10 - 3 instead of 12 - 3 to hand any future increase in need. I'd probably reuse my 20 amp breakers and outlets since they work. The only advantage would be the ability to convert any of those outlets to 30 amp if I needed.

Any thoughts on ways to future proof a wiring job? I have no clue where to put the outlet if it is a new tool, so maybe I'm over thinking this. I tend to do that.

Thanks in advance for your advice.
