Electricians on FABO - I want to add a 60Amp sub panel

your going to need grounding seperate from the house main panel. 2 ground rods 6ft apart. 1 continuous #4 cu ground wire tied to both of them and to the panel, armor covered where exposed. seperate the ground buss from the neutral buss in the new sub panel and place the panel where you will never have something in the way of access.
that will get you in the ballpark. not sure about the wire size and how deep you need to go but there are better web sites for this info and like varmintjcl say's, a licensed electrician would be a good idea. you could find one that will work with you on you doing the crap work to his specs and he does the final hook up and supplies the material


good luck, lets see some pics :glasses7:
