Hello All, Just looking for a bit of advice on the diagram I have laid out for adding a 100 amp subpanel coming from my 200 amp main. This will be going to an attached garage that requires about 45 feet of wire. The garage is drywalled, so I will be using conduit over the existing drywall, as I don't mind how that looks. Sorry for the rough drawing. Does the drawing look accurate, of would you approach this in another way?subpaneldia.jpeg

Your sub panel needs to have a neutral bar which should come already installed and a separate ground bar which usually you have to install. It looks like that you have a main lug only panel which is fine with a 100 amp breaker feeding it. You must keep your neutrals separate from your equipment grounds.
