Electrical Head Scratcher


I wouldn't overlook a nicked feeder wire to the garage (especially if you used metallic conduit) or a bad connection (are they all real tight?) in either breaker box or where you spliced into the line. You did use "split bolts' to hook the #2 and #4 wires together, right? Got them all taped up real good and not jammed 10 pounds in a 5 pound bag kind of thing?

Could moisture/water got into your underground conduit?

Can you see all the original wiring the electrician did? Don't discount that there is a problem there somewhere.
A hundred amp short isn't something to ignore. Be careful!!!

Not that it is going to cause your problem, unless there is something else drastically wrong, but make sure the neutral and ground are not bonded together in the shop sub panel.

Worst case, disconnect the connections you made from the underground feeder and what the electrician originally ran. If you have the same problem you have narrowed your scope down.
