There have been seemingly endless discussion about how to electrify the
shop.
There is a product manufactured by GE called LW Busway.
Available from any franchised GE distributor.
It is offered in a 3Wire, 250V, 30A configuration in 10 ft lengths.
Using a center tap box and two (2), 10 ft lengths of busway, it is
possible to wire either two (2) 120/240V, 30A circuits which
automatically provides four (4) 120V, 30A circuits, in a 20 ft space.
Mounts overhead or on the wall.
If you move, take it with you.
A little more expensive than pipe, wire and receptacles initially, but
the convenience and flexibility make it worth the investment IMHO.
SFWIW, yes I,m biased. I once sold the stuff. Had a customer that bought
it by the mile.
