I just bought a new heater for my garage, but all the electrical knockouts are sized for 1/2" conduit. I need a hole for 3/4" conduit to accomodate the size of my power cable.
My first thought was to use a knockout punch, but good golly those things are expensive. I don't want to spend $60 for a one time task like this. I'm also curious if a punch would work for enlarging an existing hole?
Another option is a step-drill, but those are almost as expensive at the home centers. I'm also a little worried about metal shavings falling inside the heater, or overshooting the size I need and making the hole too big.
I haven't had time to check, but I wonder if anyone rents the knockout punches?
Thanks,
Anthony
