Hi All, I've been using my new shop for 10 - 12 years and enjoying problem free activity. My electric installation is, I believe, completely safe. I also believe It does not conform to code. One day I will leave this place and someone will likely be tasked to make my installation code compliant. That effort may even require ripping out the whole installation. So, I'm looking for the least destructive solutions to making the shop code compliant, if it can be made compliant.
Here's what I have. I have 9 outlet boxes, all in parallel, all wired the same. Each of the 9 boxes contains a 220 volt NEMA L8-30 outlet connected to a single 30A circuit breaker. Each box contains a 20A 220 volt outlet and a 15A duplex 110 volt outlet connected to a single 20A circuit breaker.
The outlets look like the picture. What would you do to make this code compliant? And, what code violations might be identified here?
Thanks,
