Thanks for the info,
The box I bought is rated rainproof for outdoor use, and seems to be at least as water-tight as the breaker panel on the exterior of the house.
Just as a note, There should not be any voltage issues as I am running a set(hot, neutral, gnd) of 12ga thhn wires in the conduit for each of the four new circuits, so each new circuit will have a dedicated breaker.
I thought about the subpanel, but I just had the main breaker panel redone because it was old and did not have enough space already, all of the breakers were already doubled up. Now I have a 200amp service and plenty of spare breakers in the main box. The only thing a subpanel would have bought me at this point is another (larger) box on the wall with the breakers inside of it.
Anyway, thanks for the info, I'm glad to see I was not completely out of my mind with the way I was doing things.
Thanks again,
Nathan
