I had to run a out 85 ft of 10 gauge wire under my house because I wasn't getting the proper voltage. The dryer and the water heater were on the same breaker. They are both on there own breaker. Now I have a functioning dryer. FUCKIN A.

Right - how'd the house pass inspection/permits originally with having then on the same ? Both need 30A 220 .. Original breaker 60A ?

The inspector didn't catch that. I had turned off power to the breaker and found out a bit later it also turned off the water heater. }
