Hello, new here. I'm building a shop in my back yard and have come up with a schematic I'd like to run by you people. I've done all my own wiring for a long time and never had trouble but this if my first inspected job. Here goes.


I have a 200 amp box on my house and will run (3) 2 gauge wires (hot, hot and neut) and a ground. What size ground do i need? This will be going on a 130 foot run through 2" pvc conduit 18" deep to a 125 amp sub panel with a 125 amp breaker with a 20 1/2" rebar ground in the footing The 125 amp panel splits like this:

(1) 50 amp 220 breaker through 6 gauge hots and 8 gauge neut 10 gauge ground to (4) 50 amp welder outlets

(1) 20 amp 220 breaker through 10/3 nmb with ground to an air compressor

(2) 20 amp breakers - 12/2 nmb with ground each feeding (6) 20 amp outlets


15 amp space saver breaker one 15 amp circuit feeds garage door opener outlet and exterior light and the second feeds 3 switches each supplying power to (3) 8 foot twin tube fluroescent lights.



Anything wrong with this so far? panel size? breakers amps as related to main amps? Can you run more than one wire off a breaker? Anything else i need to know?

Thanks in advance. Mark
