    Using ac feed for new subpanel
    Girlfriend decided to not use central ac unit (dying, the ac unit that is) Thought we might be able to use the feed to run a 18,000 BTU window ac unit. But looking in the subpanel outside the MH, the ac unit was being fed by what seems to be two large hots and a ground.
    How can I convert this to four wire to feed new sub panel. I wanted to use sub panel to service the ac unit and perhaps another circuit to add a couple more outlets along the same wall the subpanel would be on.
    MH is served on other side by meter and a pedestal with a 70 and a 60 amp breaker. The sixty amp breaker was supplying the power to the ac unit.
    Any help out there Please.

    Sorry , but a four wire cable or conduit with four wires will need to be installed from the main panel to the new subpanel.
