    Supplying a subpanel
    Hello all,

    Is it permissible to supply a subpanel from another subpanel? I'm putting a sub in my garage, but someday I would like to build a stand alone garage/shop. I was wondering how to bring power to it: bigger main panel with room for third sub connection (already have basement and garge panels fed off main), separate line installed by power company, or sub to sub?

    Thanks in advance,
    Lou

    You can do sub to sub, just everything needs to be size correctly to handle the loads. Any other method will be up to you and the existing circumstances.
