My understanding is that the MAIN reason so many of you are purchasing the Spa Panel for GFCI protection is that it is much less expensive than purchasing a GFCI Breaker to go into the breaker panel. It's not that it's better, but that it's more cost-effective for DIYers.
We will be moving to a "new" house in a few weeks. The house has a wonderful unfinished area (14' wide x 32' long) in the basement for a combination workshop and e-brewing area.
The breaker panel in the basement is completely full, so I'm going to have an electrician install a sub-panel and a few circuits that I will need for various things (couple of 220V as well as a couple 110V).
Since my work is going to require the services of a professional electrician, and he will be installing a panel and running some wires, might it be preferable to have him simply install a 220V GFCI breaker into the sub-panel to use for my e-brewing circuit?
Thanks,
Keith
