I have finally decided to do something about the poor wiring in my garage/workshop. I had three outlets in my barn plugged into my barn.
So I started upgrading things, I put in a 220 breaker box and have started adding outlets. I currently own a 220 welder and a 220 compressor. the garage is only 20x20 but I still want to have power where I need it. I am putting a 110 volt outlet every 4 feet on three walls (not the wall with the doors) and was thinking 220 (2 wire) outlets half way down the side walls and maybe 1 on the back in addition to the two I will have on the wall with the doors one in the middle between the doors (3 wire) and then one in the corner by the door for the compressor. Should I add more outlets or do you think this will be enough. currently my truck is fairly stock but will be going bigger in the future, hoping to turn it into a trail rig.
