Hi,
It's been awhile since I've been on this site. I ran into a situation where customer wants to change out a small Edison fuse panel (two 30 amp fuses) and replace it with a small breaker panel. This sub panel is in the garage and there is no way to replace the feeder without tearing out drywall. The current fuse panel has no EGC and no EGC within 10/3 NM. The panel is not grounded. The branch circuits have no EGC either. Another electrician suggested putting a gfci breaker on the existing feeder in main panel. Just wondering what your thoughts are. Thanks
