1. 220v single phase wire size (score: 1): Author: Mark Andy <mark@sccaprepared.com>; Date: Mon, 18 Jul 2005 12:27:57 -0400 (EDT); I need to run some 220v single phase outlets in the garage. I'm using range plugs and 50A breakers. Looks like I should be using 6/2 wire w/ground for this right? I.e. two 6 guage shielded conductor; /html/shop-talk/2005-07/msg00093.html (7,304 bytes)

RE: 220v single phase wire size (score: 1): Author: "Randall" <tr3driver@comcast.net>; Date: Mon, 18 Jul 2005 10:11:29 -0700; 6 AWG should be adequate, however normally a range outlet has 4 pins and would be wired with 6/3 w/ground. It might be permissible under codes in your area to leave the neutral pin open (but absolut; /html/shop-talk/2005-07/msg00094.html (8,413 bytes)

RE: 220v single phase wire size (score: 1): Author: Mark Andy <mark@sccaprepared.com>; Date: Mon, 18 Jul 2005 14:59:59 -0400 (EDT); Ok, perhaps I should back up and ask a more proper question... :-) For 220vac single phase outlets in a garage, what plug configuration should I be using? In the past I've used 3 wire range outlets,; /html/shop-talk/2005-07/msg00096.html (9,665 bytes)
5. RE: 220v single phase wire size (score: 1): Author: "Randall" <tr3driver@comcast.net>; Date: Mon, 18 Jul 2005 12:19:42 -0700; The 4-prong will certainly give you the most flexibility. OTOH I can't think of anything I'm likely to use in my garage that requires a neutral, except perhaps an old kitchen oven for powder coating; /html/shop-talk/2005-07/msg00097.html (7,533 bytes)
