I'm wiring a new 220v outlet (with the help of my step-father) but I'd just like to make sure he is doing it correctly and that I understand a little bit more... Basically, I'm trying to wire a new ...

The savings from multiwire branch circuits can come at a high cost. It's true that multiwire branch circuits reduce raceway size, voltage drop, and the number of conductors. However, mishandling or ...
