Default Number of outlets per circuit in new shop

Thanks Charlie, that was just what I wanted to know. I've got some twofers
already and I'll look into if they can be used for the rest, but unless I
can get everything into the existing panel, I'll have to get a new one
anyway. Which is what I suspect, but I got an electrician at work and I'm
going to pick his brain about all this too.

And ol' Ms. Dorothy is one of my all time favorites. Glad to see you
finally got around to her in your sig line

Thanks again

Otto

I think the number was, may still be, 8 for 110 circuits. I really didn't

check
on 220 because I put only 1 on each (aslo didn't run 8 on each 110: 6 was
plenty).


Subpanel should be fine, but check locally. You might also be able to use

half
thickness breakers, thus getting twofers--two breakers in a single slot.
