outlet upgrade?
I need to get a 220 amp electrical outlet installed in the garage for a pottery kiln. In addition I need to get the breaker upgraded, I believe to 60 amps, to handle this increased energy flow. I plan on hiring a professional to do this for safety concerns. To all you electricians out there, about how much am I looking at spending on this in the Oklahoma City market?
in mass. its $600 . its not just an outlet a disconnect is involved also.it depends on how far from your electrical panel you are going.the wire they will use is expensive so the further away you go the more the stock cost.also too there is a voltage dropping you go too far and need even thicker wire.make sure they use copper.define that in your specs when dealing with a contractor.dont let them use aluminum. another factor is s there space in your electrical panel,do you have any blanks or are they going to have to do a sub panel.i had enough space .another factor is how many amps is your main panel ? if you olnyhave a 100 amp service and 60 is going to be used for the pottery kiln then you might have to upgrade your main panel to a 200 amp.in this case they will
have to run a new line from the pole or under ground to accommodate you.its hard to give you a quote when i dont know what you have.a new service would depend on how far you are from the pole etc.if its underground can you use the same conduit or do you have to trench it .hopefully its just a matter running a 60 amp drop and you wont have to get into anything else.good luck !
