Tapping into 220V circuit
Our apartment (built early 60's) is woefully underpowered. There's
one 20A circuit to service the entire living room, dining area AND kitchen. However the stove and oven have separate 220V circuits and breakers. We'd like to run a 220V air conditioner during our hot summers by tapping off the oven's circuit (for reasons I won't go into here, the oven is never used). The wiring has its own conduit and junction box in an adjacent cupboard in the kitchen -- it's readily accessible. How much effort is involved in adding a few 220V plugs into this junction box? Is it easy enough for an neophyte to handle? |
