hi. New here, nice site. I am finishing a basement and am about to do the electrical. I have 2 separate rooms. One room is 21'.6"X14.4", the other is a theatre room and is 21'.6"X 15'. The bar room I have layed out for 10 20A recepts and will be on 1 20 amp breaker. Then I have the theatre room at 10 receps and 1 20amp breaker. I have a 3rd 20 amp circuit for the pellet stove and Fridge(small under bar fridge). I have an existing 15 amp circuit there now I was gonna use for the lights in both rooms. Should I do this or not? Based on Code, I will have 14 recessed lights at 75 watt max. That wattage divided by 120 comes out to 8.75Amps, which is good for the lighting, my issue is, should I run a second 15 amp circuit and split the rooms for the lighting? Or keep it this way? My only concern is if something happens all the lighting will go out.
Thanx,
PG
