I am wiring outlets in my basement and had a couple questions which are hopefully easy to answer. I am running a 20 amp circuit (12/2 romex & 20 amp breaker) that will have 11 15-amp outlets. After running the wire today I realized the run length was fairly long. I measured it and it is right about 150' of wire, which sounds like it might be a concern for voltage drop based on some quick googling. Is 150' too long and a concern for voltage drop? While Googling this question I keep getting calculators but I am not exactly sure how to calculate it or what it all means. At the end of the run is going to be my entertainment center area with TV, Blu-ray player, soundbar, etc.
Below is a rough drawing of the wire run. The dotted red line is what I have currently. If distance is too long, then I was wondering if I could/should put a junction box where the power source comes into the room and run the outlets in two different directions, shown by the blue dotted lines. The solid circles indicate where the run would end. The solid red line is the wire I would remove to make the blue dotted line possible. Looking for any recommendations.
