Running an additional sub panel in my garage
ReportQuestion
Please briefly explain why you feel this question should be reported.
I’m wanting to install an additional sub panel in my garage. I will be running wire for the additional sub panel from one side to the other, about 50 feet. I want to use this new sub panel for a welder requiring 50 amps, and Two additional 20 amp circuits. I used the wire size calculator you listed, looks like the #6 gauge wire between the sub panels is adequate. I am planning on installing a 50 amp breaker in the existing source sub panel, then installing a 50 amp breaker and two 20 amp breakers in the new sub panel. Do I have this right, any guidance?
