I had to move the outlet for my welder today. Since it's been a topic of recent discussion, I decided to document the event.
I went to Home Depot and purchased the correct length of 8-3 stranded cable and then ran it through the attic after drilling holes to drop it down to the main panel and the wall where the outlet would go: Attached image(s) |

I didn't like the cable coming out from under the panel either, so I went to the store and got a fitting.
Look again, I changed the picture where the cable exits the box. I don't care about code, I care about safety. As for conduit, if I put a 220V outlet outside the main box with the wires in the wall, and then plugged in my 'extension cord' and ran it through the ceiling just like I did, it would be code. Like I said on my 'insurance' thread, I'm looking for a little common sense here. This is perfectly safe. |
