I bought a 3 hp saw recently, and i was planning on running an extension cord from my dryer outlet in the next room to power it until i got around to doing some rewiring in my shop sometime in the future. The saw came with a 6-15 plug on it (2 pole plus ground), and right now the dryer outlet uses a 10-30 receptacle (3 pole, no ground). I was thinking of switching out the dryer outlet to a 14-30 (3 pole plus ground) and then make a cord with a 10-30 plug on one end and a 6-20 receptacle on the other, but when i pulled out the outlet i found there is no ground wire. Is there a way i can use this outlet with the saw?
Thanks!
Thanks!
