Default Electrical wiring

You have always heard there are no stupid questions. Maybe the
questions were asked for reference. To see what others had done when
there shop was wired. I think it was a legitimate question asking the
difference between the wires. If he is to have someone wire the shop
are all electricians going to wire with 12/2 on 220 and 10/2 on 110?
Knowledge is a good thing and being able to tell the electrician what
you want can only make the shop that much better.


One who lacks knowledge on a topic is far better served by telling the
electrician what functionality he wants and leaving the how-to's to the
person most knowledgeable - the electrician. BTW, no - all electricians are
not going to wire with 12/2 on 220 and 10/2 on 110. Just the opposite. And
yes - for the most part, all electricians are going to wire the same way -
based on the requirements of the circuit.
