Add outlets off a subpanel
Hi all,
I am working on a three family home and need to add outlets to three bedrooms without disrupting too much of the place. The owner of the place replaced the service panels recently.
The panels are in the basement and the unit that needs the outlets is on the third floor.
I am thinking of using wiremold and surface boxes so as to not have to fix walls. ANy other thoughts would be welcome.
My problem is where to I run the wire from... I could add a breaker to the basement panel and run a wire up to the third floor for the circuit... but there is a sub panel on the third floor that runs from a 50a breaker on the panel and has a 15a and a 20a circuit running from it.
Is there any reason why I can't add a 15a breaker to the subpanel (there is room) and run 7 or 8 outlets using wire mold.
Hope that make sense.. much thanks
