My first house - 1968 - was one that was newly built. I had the opportunity to run a 50A 240V feeder from a breaker on the main panel to a sub-panel in what was my ham shack after I did the load calculation to ensure that the main had the capacity to serve the sub-panel as per code. Installed dedicated 120V and 240V branches with quality receptacles. We stayed there 9 years until we needed a larger place, but I never was able to do that again. ---- 73 de K2ASP - Phil Kane Elecraft K2/100 s/n 5402 From a Clearing in the Silicon Forest Beaverton (Washington County) Oregon ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
