Yes.
Thanks.
I assumed that. Looks like when we has some remodeling work done they stole the spot that had the breaker to a capped off 14-50 we were going to re-purpose for the HPWC. And now there are no more open spots on the panel.
Sounds like this simple install just got more expensive and time consuming.
Anyone know what a new bigger panel install costs?
Why don’t you just put a cord on your WC and plug it into the 14-50?

Typically there is a large breaker - usually at the top. Likely going to be 100a, 200a, 400aHow can you tell how many Amps you have in your panel? If it matters, our house was built in 1984.

I see people mention this, using language like you did: "you can". However, that is a "you may be able to". Some panels allow tandem breakers, and some don't. My panel is a fairly modern (1996) Square D panel, and it does not allow any tandem or quad breakers.Assuming you have enough amperage capacity, you can replace 4 individual 15 or 20 amp branch circuits with breakers that combine 2 circuits into one space like these Eaton CH 2-15 Amp 1-Pole Tandem Circuit Breaker-CHT1515 - The Home Depot

Do modern panels allow tandem breakers? Mine was upgraded 2 or 3 years ago.
No, it doesn’t matter when. The panel capacity is determined or known by the size of the main breaker. “Available” capacity is based upon what else is already installed and your other existing loads.
Thanks. I will check with my neighbors that do their own contracting and see what supply we have from PG&E
However, by main breaker do you mean something at the meter box? There is a panel there with the meter, but it has wire seals on it from the power company. But looking at the two bundles of wires coming out of it, it looks like one runs to the AC compressor, and the other to the panel in question.
It is odd that you don’t have access to the main breaker, which allows you to turn off the whole house power. What is the highest Amp breaker in your panel?
After further checking out by the meter I got into another panel. It shows 2-100 Amp breakers with the word "Main". So I assume we have a 200 Amp service from the street. Is this correct?
It looks like the output of this is split to the panel in the garage that says 125 A max and to a separate line running toward the A/C compressor (it goes into a wall so I cannot track it further). A/C has fuse box on the wall and says Max fuse 50A.
