i got all my tattoos while serving. im actually a white guy. when i applied for police back in 1999 i aced every test mental and physical. finished the top of my test group. two weeks later i get a letter in the mail from the chief of police thanking me for my interest but unfortunately they were only looking for visible minorities. now in my neighborhood where i grew up i was the minority. ive been out of the service since 2012. started as infantry then transferred to air defence.

My main is 200 amp. Went to the electrical supplier and got some quotes. It will be cheaper for me to run a 100 amp. 1.87 a foot for the 100amp and almost 6.00 a foot for the smaller Wire for the 60amp. Made no since. That’s direct burial cable.

How much space do you have left? A load calculation will let you know exactly how many amps you can add. For 20 amps you just need 12/2 romex
Yea man if u gonna direct buried I suggest using a 1" pvc or liquid tight it will be better in case something happen u just snake a new wire thru. Thats my preference over straight uf

It will be in pvc. It’s way more electric then I need. 30 amp at 240v would be more then enough. Might just run 1 pvc and use the number 10 stranded I already have. Need to save money for the lights.
