    The solid copper wire is going to a ground rod. I have to install a second one. Didn't know I needed 2. I would replace the 100 amp breaker with a 50 or 60 breaker but the wire is to big & will not fit into them. I don't want to dig up that wire if I don't have to.

    The house was built in the 50s not sure when they rain the under ground wires. The 3 wire coming from the house to the first garage is the same type of wire going from the first garage to the second garage.

    The under ground wire between the 2 garages is a big gray wire. Inside that wire is 1 bare wire, 2 black wires, 1 w/ a red stripe. All 3 wires are aluminum. I am only thinking of using a 100 amp breaker in the 1st sub panel is because that size wire will only fit a 100 amp breaker. Not a 60...

    Spot welder for panel replacement

    yep I spot welded two pieces then clamped one end in a bench vise & the other end to my hydraulic puller. It took a couple of times to get the right weld for a really good hold. What I mean is how long to hold the electrodes together & how tight. If that makes sense. Do some test panels...
