Good morning all -
Quick garage circuit question here. I am running a new circuit to a garage (only purpose being for garage door opener, 2 fluorescent lights, and 1 outlet -- as I believe that would be required). Planning on a 20amp circuit, using 12/2 underground feeder.
Because this is only 1 branch circuit, it is my understanding that the NEC would not require me to install a sub panel and extra ground rod at the garage... but would I need a disconnect switch in the garage?
Thanks in advance!
