Default Electrical Sub Panel

Hello, I want to install new circuits in my basement and I want to do
it off of an electrical sub panel. The subs i see are only 1 phase.
How to I tap into the main box? Do i still use a double pole
breaker? Single pole breakers only go upto 30 amps. I want to run 4
separate circuits off the new box. Thanks.


When I meet up with a person who wants put in a sub, I quickly ask
why?

There might be better solutions. Now since you said you want more
circuits, has a service calc been done?
