Hello and first post.
I currently have in my shop a breaker box (coming off my house service) containing 4 20 amp breakers for my lights and 110 receptacles along with a 30 amp breaker that is currently being used for one 220 outlet using a 10/2 wire. With that, my box is full.
I have just acquired a mill/drill that is single phase 220 and a lathe that is 3 phase 1 hp.
I would like to be able to use that 30 amp breaker to run an 8/3 line to my phase converter (manufacturer reccomended size) and also have a receptacle from same to run my single phase 220 mill.
The 220 receptacle on the 10/2 I have now will be eliminated.
What are my options, if any?
Thanks
