220 V table saws and ground
I realize this isn't exactly a woodworking question, but when I asked
about 220 V wiring for my shed in an earlier thread a lot of electricians came out of the 'woodwork'. So. I now have 220 V in my shed for my Walker Turner table saw. I noticed that the plug from the saw only has two wires. The ground is not connected. My shed has a ground stake. Should I run the ground wire to the saw? It certainly has a whooping iron chasis. Should I not do this? (For those of you who helped me the last time, I finally decided to get an electrician to wire it. He took the 220V line from my 30 amp circuit for the house drier (I have a gas drier, so I don't use it), ran #10 wires out to a 30 amp breaker panel in the shed, split out two 110V circuits and a 20 amp 220v and put in a ground stake. This took him 6 hours. It would have taken me about 2 months). thanks, b |
