I have an empty slot in my power panel and I was thinking about running a circuit out to the garage door for 30 AMP service there. I plan on hooking up the camper when the grand kids come.
My questions:
What gauge wire should I use. The distance from the box to the garage door is 45 feet.
Does the 30 AMP camper outlet wire up any differently than a standard 10-15 AMP outlet?
Should I use a 30 AMP ground fault breaker switch in the power panel?
I'm not an electrician but I have added house hold circuits to the power panels in the past but they were all the standard 110V, 15 AMP variety.
