Hi and happy holidays to everyone,
The time has come to wire up my shipping container shop, but we're not quite sure what wire needs to be run from the main breaker pole (I own this part, not to worry). We know that we need at least 6 gauge (4 preferable) to power my heat treat oven and grinder. It's a 50 ft run into the shop plus another 40 or so to the back where the grinding room is. There seems to be many different types such as Romex and the like.
Just curious to see what those who have wired up their own shops have done.
