I'm getting very close to being able to fire my bench up...maybe by this weekend. By next weekend for sure.
My plan is to mount a 100 amp subpanel to the back of the upper section of my msd based bench. I'm starting with 6 vacuum motors and plan to use three (3) 15 amp 230 volt breakers. Each hot leg of each breaker will feed a motor through a light switch.
Here are my questions given the above.
1. Can I run a large neutral wire from the neutral bar in the subpanel to three motors? So essentially I'll have two neutral wires going from the subpanel with each one connecting to three motors. I can't see why I cannot because neutral I believe is just a return, but I'm not a electrician.
2. Since I'm running the 16-1234 motors which only have two (2) terminal connections, how and where do you connect a ground?
Boy, I hope this bench works!
Thanks.
