I want to run some more outlets and lights in my new 2.5 car garage.
does anyone here know about home electrical wiring?
I think I need to put in a breaker box out there to handle everything.
can I just run the existing power that comes into the garage from the house into the new box and then power off of that or do I need to run a new phase line into the garage to juice up the new breaker box??
also I have an high end UPS system for my servers. this UPS uses a special 3 prong plug. I want to replace one of the outlets in my computer room with this new outlet type. it is a 120v 20A system but I can only find 120v 30A recepticles. is it ok to put a 30A rated recepticle onto a 20A rated line (the computer room is on its own 20A breaker)??
anyone?
TIA!
