A a rule I try never do work for friends or family...too deep a discount...they usualy want it for free. A friend is a having a spa and water feature built. It is in the furthest corner on the opposite side of the house from the main panel, a run of about 80 ft. I'm sure he'll want the timer setup. He will require a sub panel. He wanted to know if he should keep the Spa panel and sub panel at the main and run the circuits in conduit out to disconnects near the spa or keep the spa panel and everything in the spa area? Or is it six of one or a half dozen of the other?
