In this video I show how I installed a 100 amp subpanel in my shop. I am not an electrician but I am comfortable doing a job like this myself. With that said, please do your own research before you tackle something like this on your own.

As an Army Corps of Engineer Officer having received many instructional briefs, your instruction was clear, concise and easy to follow. Well done !

My husband was electrical engineer , we did our own wiring and of course had it inspections ! You never want to do your own wiring !

"I'm not an electrician but I ain't afraid to fool with it." I think I'll use that quote lol.

As an electrical contractor, I appreciate your attention to detail, preparation, and common sense. An experienced electrician would have either upgraded the main panel, drilled a hole in the back , and put subpanel outside, or flush mounted the sub with a nipple through the stud, next to existing panel. If you ever do this again, a piece of romex, with a connector in the panel, and one in your junction box would have been legal.

You “arent” an electrician yet your work looks more meticulous and well organized then a lot of the hands I’ve worked with over the years. Nice work bud. Great video. Got a real kick out of the bloopers lol

Dude, you must have a great inspector. All I ever get from the ones in my county is "do it by the code" and then they hang up... As if they're doing me a favor by even answering the phone.

I've sat thru many classes taught by professors that were a waste of time. They just couldn't teach. You have that rare teachers gene. You don't leave out the little things that hang people up and you don't try to impress with how much you know. 10 out of 10 my friend. Thanks.

8 years later: This is by far the best, most detailed, most coherent wiring video I've watched. I'm trying to add a 240v welder to my 200A household panel, which has no more room. You've walked me through the process of adding a sub-panel so I feel comfortable doing it myself. I may ask my electrician buddy to give it an eye-over, but it seems pretty straightforward. I particularly appreciate seeing the TN inspector's sticker in your breaker box. My mom was a Vol, and I appreciate hearing such a clear, helpful and informative lesson in the same voice.

I love this guy - Very thorough and yet down to earth and easy to understand. I watched a lot of videos on subpanels but this was the most entertaining with the same detailed info. Keep making more vids.

I'm just fixing to do the same job and your show and tell was much more helpful than many of the others. You've convinced me to go pull a permit. Thanks.

Excellent work. Bonus points for getting a permit and having the panel inspected. You, sir, do neat, organized wiring. A pleasure to watch.

This video provides some fantastic advise. I appreciate the detail and the fact that you recommended getting a permit and talking to the inspector prior to beginning the project. Since I'm not a contractor I hadn't thought about that before, thank you! I love the detail!

This has got to be the best explanatory video on how to wire a sub-panel that I've come across on KZfaq. I wired a sub-panel about 7 years ago and need to do another one but needed some refresher as I am not an electrician and you provided me with the clarity I was looking for. Thank you for keeping this video up. Excellent work.
