what are you running that you need 60 amps? and is that a 60 amp 110 breaker or a 60 amp 220?

Steve
You are confusing the issue needlessly. What Dave said is correct. Any real Electrician reading this would realise that it is uneconomical to attempt to get a sub panel less than 60 amps. You can go to any Rona or similar store, and pick up all the needed material, and have at it. There was a time when you could pick up a 30 amp panel easily, but I have not seen one lately. BTW nomimal voltage is 240V
