Electrical Work
#1
Working on adding electricity to a two car detached garage.  The house panel is full, except for one single 30 amp breaker.  If I ran 10 gauge wire, from the house panel, out to the garage (75 feet away) to a new 2 or 4 breaker panel, does that give me enough power to run the garage with?  There is no welder or any other big juice items in the garage. Basically, its two garage doors, some lights, and half a dozen plug ins. 



OR


In the same house panel, can I hook up with a double 30 amp breaker that runs nothing but the Central Air Unit?  and then run the 10 gauge wire out to the garage. 



Basically, is 30 amps enough juice to power a garage?

Deceitful, two-faced she-woman. Never trust a female, Delmar, remember that one simple precept and your time with me will not have been ill spent.
