    I saw your post about needing an electrician in Colorado Springs. I am in Denver and looking for a qualified electrician. I'm running an 8-3 wire from main panel to sub panel about 80ft. Currently a 12g wire is there. Access point is in crawl space under house and may need some assistance in properly wiring the 8-3 wire. Is this something you have more knowledge on?

    Is this 240v or 120v?
    It sounds like you have a handle on what you are getting into. Are you pulling through conduit? If so, how big and are there other conductors in the conduit?

    Thanks for the reply! Luckily I found someone that was available today to come take a look. I guess my issue is a bit more complex than originally thought. I only have 120V available from the service connection when I need 240v. ll the 12g and replace with 6-3 so that someday it will be ready for 240v service and the 6-3 shouldn't overheat, but ballasts and or lights may wear out sooner than they should.

    Does that sound like a feasible workaround or scrap my whole grow plan?
