GFCI does not apply to “garages or shops” unless there is water involved. I think it gets very complicated at that point. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>But GFI does come in to play. He said that he is pretty sure that “dedicate” tool circuits do not have to have GFI protection. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>However service outlets do. He said to do the same thing I had planned on doing. Any 220 outlets are dedicated tool outlets. For your branch circuits/service outlets install a GFI at the first one and run the rest off that. After it is inspected take the GFI out. Just remember you can only have so many outlets downstream, although I would think you would want at least 2 circuits. Technically I have 4 but I over engineered my electrical big time. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>On another note, if you are going to run 12ga wire for your branch circuits I would use deep 4 x 4 boxes with mud rings so you have lots of room to work the wires.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Again, good luck.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>2Dave<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'> Woodworkers [mailto:woodworkers-bounces@lists.sawdusters.org] <b>On Behalf Of </b>Mike Hales via Woodworkers<br><b>Sent:</b> Wednesday, September 28, 2016 10:16 AM<br><b>To:</b> woodworkers@sawdusters.org; WK via Woodworkers<br><b>Subject:</b> Re: [Woodworkers] New Shop<o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p>Thanks Bill,<o:p></o:p></p><p>It's been fun for the most part but I can't wait to get it finished and start on some projects.<o:p></o:p></p><p>I am planning on most all receptacles being 20 amp and the lighting will be 15 amp. Mostly because as you said, I might want to move some tools around, etc. The lighting will be 15 amp because my BIL gave me a roll of 14/2 which should be fine for all of the lighting.
