I bought picrel heater for my attached garage. https://www.menards.com/main/heating-cooling/heaters/electric-garage-heaters/dyna-glo-apex-7-500w-240v-wi-fi-bluetooth-forced-air-electric-garage-heater/eg7500wbhcax/p-1642874323818357-c-6328.htmI will snake the wire through the wall myself and have an electrician do the connections. My question is should I use 6/2 or 6/3 wire? https://www.homedepot.com/pep/Southwire-50-ft-6-2-Stranded-Romex-SIMpull-CU-NM-B-W-G-Wire-28894422/205357757?g_store=2731&source=shoppingads&locale=en-US&pla&utm_source=google&utm_medium=vantage&utm_campaign=50735&utm_content=53005&mtc=SHOPPING-RM-RMP-GGL-D27E-Multi-NA-SOUTHWIRE-NA-PMAX-NA-NA-MK895799001-50735-NBR-2712-NA-VNT-FY25_Q1_Q4_Southwire_D27E_OAM_Silver_AON&cm_mmc=SHOPPING-RM-RMP-GGL-D27E-Multi-NA-SOUTHWIRE-NA-PMAX-NA-NA-MK895799001-50735-NBR-2712-NA-VNT-FY25_Q1_Q4_Southwire_D27E_OAM_Silver_AON-22178042562--&gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=22178043522&gclid=CjwKCAiA2svIBhB-EiwARWDPjuXF7e05tK9fhwnaaG6RFh04iW3ROMVjHgybBqLztH91FDlq5og9yhoCnDYQAvD_BwE
Cringe bump. The more I read online - and not AI shit but actual forums - the /3 uses the additional wire so 120 could be used at the same location, is the correct? I understand the gauge and all that shit, I have seen people use 8gauge instead, but for the little money more i'd rather use 6.Honestly my only question here is because when I looked at 6/2 in the store I balked because it was always my understanding 220v had 3 wires + ground.
>>2957466i think ground is a safety code added after the wire definitions so /2 should include ground. meaning 3 wires in the sheath
