Default O.T. Kevin is the Man

Kevin came over yesterday and hooked me up. My home was a model home built by richmond American and my garage was used as there office. Well for some strange reason I had only one 110 volt double plug in there on the south wall, and one on the cileling which was for the garage door opener. for almost three years I had a extension cord going to a multi outlet 6 and ran everything off of that. Kevin came and added 2 sets of two 20 amp gdi's near my tool box and work area. one on the ceiling with a switch for my flourescent lights and one outside for my holiday decorating lights.

Thanks Kevin.

your very welcome Yimmy!



turned a single light switch for the garage into a 3-way operable from gargae or inside house

added 2 dedicated 20amp gfci's inside the garage

extended the lighting circuit in the garage from the house door to the middle of the garage for better lighting capability

dropped a 20 amp dedicated gfci below the panel outside for lights, tools, power washer, etc....

Sounds like you did everything about as beefy as possible kev., you really sound like you know what you are doing, more than I can say for most professionals/handymen.

You aren't going to do any "grading" with that little toy. We have NH170's at work and I hate grading with them because they are too small. Ours are ATLEAST twice the size of the one in the pic.

Just curious, for the wiring, did you run 12/2 romex for those 20 amp circuits or are you guys required to run greenfield and conduit with THHN?

actually, I ran 12/3 romex for the 2 gfi's. they are in the same 2 gang box , so it was easier.




out here, all residential is romex (unless otherwise specified).

commercial is conduit..emt, imc, rigid, and even some m/c cable
