Today I'm going to install a 220 volt outlet in the garage, so that I can finally use my air compressor.

The ideal time to install an outlet is during new construction, but because this house has a basement, I'll be able to run wire and install a 220v outlet without having to go inside of any walls. If you don't have a basement where you can access the breaker box and run wire to the garage, then it's not going to be as simple as what I'm about to do. Also, don't attempt to do this yourself unless you know exactly what you're doing when it comes to electrical work, or have an electrician help you!

EDIT 9-10-23... I finally flipped the box over so the plug is pointing the right way!
