I’ve taken time off from working on the mustang to upgrade my electricity options in the garage. Currently, there is a 30 amp 110 circuit feeding the garage. I’m going to swap out the panel in the garage with one that gas more space for additional breakers. Then I plan the change the breaker in box that supplies the garage with a 220 breaker. I’ll need the add a ground wire at the garage. I’ve been working on digging the trench to bury the rod so I get get enough of it underground. The top soil is only 18″ deep at best so I cannot drive it in vertically.
I’m doing all of this so I can upgrade my compressor to something that will keep up with my air consumption when using sanders, die grinders, and cutoff wheels. Also, I’ll be able to add a plasma cutter to the arsenal of tools. Many times I wished I had a plasma cutter when switching out blades on my body saw.
