How do you add a 240 volt receptacle to 100 amp supply?
The 240 volt receptacle has to have an amperage rating. It is this rating that governs the wire size and breaker size to feed the circuit. The new two pole breaker will be inserted in the 100 amp distribution if space is available and connected to the new wiring that terminates at the new receptacle.

How big of breaker do you use for 115 volt?
Depends on the wire size used in the circuit. If you use AWG # 14 wire you must use a 15 amp breaker. If it is wired with AWG # 12 wire then you use a 20 amp breaker. If a AWG # 10 wire is used then a 30 amp breaker is required. The breaker protects the wiring from overheating so you must use the proper size breaker for the wire used.
