Post subject:  I need more power, Scotty!

I just can't do it captain, I don't have the power!

As most of you know, I started to try and get back in the group in November but that was short lived as the Holidays were crazy and things have just started to settle down for me. Well, I'm trying to make another go at things. Stopped by the swap meet last Saturday and seeing all the broncos made me want to get my project going. I purchased a house over a year ago so I can finally have a full garage to myself and the bronco among other reason for having a house. The garage has power...but only 110v and the main panel for the house is only a 100 amp panel, 1950's house. Since there is a sub panel that was attached to the main panel, the house inspector said I could add some circuit breakers to that to get power to the garage. The reason for the more power is for a welder and down the road air compressor. It would be nice at some point to open my garage up to others if they need to use things.

Is that feesable? or am I better off dishing out the funds for a Main Panel upgrade? If I go the route of the Main Panel upgrade, it would be down the road as funds are tight.

Also, it was nice see ya, the ones that were at the swap meet. Sorry, I didn't introduce myself to more. It was nice to unload a lot of my scrap part towards the project bronco. I like the idea and look forward to doing some of the projects.

Depends on how much juice you want in the garage? looking at the pic you prob want an upgrade, but could look diff with the covers off

Post subject:  Re: I need more power, Scotty!

Thats another thing I'm nervous about, once the panels are open, more issues are uncovered.

Welder would work off of 240v 30 amp and the Air Compressor work off of 240v 20 amp. The sub panel uses two 50 amp breakers off of the main panel. The only thing right now that pulls 240v is the AC.

no range/oven or dryer?

Both the oven and dryer are gas.

Where are you at? If you aren't too far out of the way, I can swing by and take a look at it for you. From the looks of the picture, you may have a couple of options.

I live on the south west side of Denver, Sheridan and Florida are the main cross streets.

I think we need a tech day on garage wiring. There are more than a few guys that would want to know how to wire a 220v circuit, myself included.

I just wired a 100amp sub panel to my garage. with all free parts. Now I can run whatever I want in the garage.

Dave (Crazyone) was able to stop by after work yesterday to check out my setup and was able to figure out what we can do to get more power into the garage. Thanks again Dave.

I too can do a service change from 100 amp to 150-200 amp services. Or wire a 220v to a garage and most of us could use a
couple dedicated 20 amp circuits in the garage as most houses are wired with the garage,bath gfi or outside gfi. If your not 100% confident and comfortable in running wire and working in a panel don't touch it. Have a few electrician friends who has lost fingers and or cooked a couple (480 to phase) but its no fun. I also have a full service remodel basement and home building company.
