220 V running from home to shop breaker box 218ft away. Have plenty of space to put a new breakers in box. Is this too far a distance for good power f

hi Once your Shop electrical panel box (sub panel box) and wire is sizes correct you should have no problem. lathe Breaker 30 amp, 6 mm square wire .. don't think you would be powering up all equipment in shop at the same time...

I don't really know for sure, you probably should check with an electrician. I can tell you that I ran power to a detached shop from home breaker box. I used 10-3 outdoor grade wiring for the 100 foot span. Absolutely no problems.

Your question would be best answered by Jet. They can be contacted directly at 800-274-6846.

I'am not an electrician but, from what little I do know, that might be too far, even with heavy ga. wire. I would ask a professional electrician to be safe and prevent damage to your machine.

Unfortunately, your idea doesn't work as described on a 2-wire 220 circuit. That is, unless you use the bare ground as a neutral, and that isn't really too Kosher, although logically I don't know why. It would be nice to see what my submersible well pump, window mount A/C unit and air compressor are using.

You will certainly have room if you an empty breaker slot. You might also have room if you make direct connections - i.e. not tap into a vacant slot - this is a questions an electrician could easily answer for you - and if you are asking these questions then you need an electrician. Also, you need WALL space to mount the unit on the wall near to your breaker box.

Should have no trouble with 110. that's what I used it for; tracing standard 110/120 power outlets around the house. I labeled the outlets to my circuit breaker box, so now I know which outlet goes to what breaker switch. Hope this helps

I have mine running off a 50 amp breaker to cover absolute max inpot reguired. You can get away with a smaller breaker if you are using at a lower output.

I mounted my unit about 2 feet away from an existing wall receptacle. If I had to use an extension cord, I would use a 13 or 15 amp rated extension cord for this purpose.

That wouldn't be a good idea because you will be removing a built-in protection against electrocution/short circuits and I'm sure it's against the building code. I would find another outlet to replace.

For my uses, I do not need to extend beyond the cable length provided with the device. That said... The DS18B20 is a 1-Wire Digital Communications Temperature Sensor. The manufacturer specs state max operating current is 1.5 mA, therefore, the distance will be limited by Voltage Drop. Do not know your application, however, if distances are measured in feet, I'd speculate 20 ft with good copper conductors. I recommend using a shielded cable with shield grounded at the cable termination end only. Greater distances may be possible. Since this device is not that expensive, you could "buy it and try it."

I did not see a question but our switch is located within a few feet from the under counter lights. So I do not know what the effective distance is for this switch.

Probably. It depends on how far and how insulated the wires are between the switch and the breaker box. I've found that on longer runs, the tones generated by this device just aren't "loud" enough to make it easy to find which wire it leads to on the other side. Unless your house is huge, you'll probably be ok.

Hi Teresa, First off, the disclaimer: I am not an electrician. With that aside...yes, it will most definitely work. I am currently using the recommended 220 with 2-50 amp breakers, so you have more than enough power available. Since I wrote my review I have nothing to add other than the unit is still performing flawlessly and satisfactorily. Let me know if you have any other questions. John

You will burn the circut boards or the fusers. Check on the manual. If it capatible To use 220. I recommend use 110v for safety.

This unit must run on a dedicated 220 line; the line is made for that and will not fit in a regular outlet. We are very pleased with this unit.

This system is 220-240 VAC, single phase. Yes, you need to bring directly from your breaker box. Here is how I did. I added two 15 amps breakers at the main box. Every house has two 110VAC poles. Be sure to connect each of them to the 15 amps breaker. Then bring the wire to your system. In my case I added another 15 amps breakers next to the system out side my house. My system is 24000 btu, rated at 9 amps per phase. The rule of thumb is that your fuse must be between 120-133% of the rating on the system. Goodluck

Absolutely. Mine is a large standard metal box, about 200 feet away from my house. Works flawlessly.

I don't believe your service panel has enough amperage for this model. I think 220 volts coming in from main. Then the property using this model will need an update interior panel.

Range is great for 2 floors and outside. Both plugs are North American power though. You will need a converter for over seas.
