I'm wanting to install a new 120V service to my pond to run a fountain, lights, recepticles, etc.
Here are the facts. Any opinions on what I should install would be appreciated.
The line will come off our house 200A Breaker Panel.
The pond is approx. 600' away.
The fountain runs 7.5 Amps.
Continuous service
Copper cable.
Looks like I should use a #6 or even #4 AWG. To stay within voltage drop.
What is recommended for underground cable Mfg. And where to buy.
What concerns do I need to concern for the Breaker Panel?
I'm thinking of a 15 Amp breaker.
Any help would be appreciated. I do electrical work but it is all control wiring for machinery so my supply side experience is limited.
Thanks, Thackery
