The garage was in need of MORE POWER! Well, sort of anyway. I needed a 240v 30amp outlet to run a heater, welder, etc... So, off to HD to grab some stuff. $25.87 later, I'm headed home with a small bag of goodies and ready to install.
Here is my target spot. I wasn't going to wander far from the 100 amp entry to the garage. Keep it simple!
Because of the openers installed here and the complex cut of the sheetrock, I decided to split the sheet at the panel and lights and take out the lower section.
Here you can see the insulation pulled back.
And here, the hole drilled for the conduit to run through.
Here is the outlet box installed with the conduit in place. Conduit is needed for the THHN rated 10 gauge wire as it doesn't come in a jacketed version.
