The shed is not in yet, but I'm starting to think about how I'm going to wire it before the slab goes down next week.
The load requirements will be minimal, but I would like to have breakers so I can cut power to the receptacles and outside/ inside lighting from the shed. I probably won't run any heavy power tools - maybe a shop-vac or circular saw once in awhile. There will be inside lighting and one motion controlled spotlight. I was considering a 12/3 w/ ground run from a 20A double pole breaker to a small subpannel in the shed (120 feet). There will be PVC conduit up through the slab with #12 THHN.
Does this sound like overkill? Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Jon
