coolmom,
Driers may be 240 volts. Be extremely careful.
Yep.
Probably not the best idea. If I did it I would double check behind the electrician. Not a trusting person here!
I'll probably just get a separate circuit run, since the breaker box is a few feet from the dryer, and plenty of room in the breaker box. But will also double-check behind the electrician. :D
Thanks for the warning.
Coolmom2,
If you are running new wire--I'd go to 50 amp (i.e. 4 wires), and then just use 30 of it for now.
The labor is the same, the wire is not much more expensive and so long as there is room in the breaker box you will be golden.
