    Looks good to me Matt. I like GFI breakers, instead of GFI plugs. It cost a little bit more, but you are saving a bundle by doing it your self.

    Matt, I think you will be fine. If you place your breakers in your panel, balance them ( don't use all of the ones on one side, and leave the other side empty ).

    I used romex, and all of the wires are in the wall. If you are using conduit, and running it on the outside of the wall, I think you can just run the wires through the box. Here is the...

    Hi Tim,

    I would try 80 grit sand paper and give them a good sanding. Raise the feeder up, turn it on, and give them a good sanding. I agree with Steve, but the sanding may help.
