Just wanted to say thanks for all the help I have recieved on this site. You could hear me whooping all over the marsh when I made the final connections and everything worked. My man cave is alive.

Joe Willie,

You went through a lot of iterations on your wiring plan. What did you finally do? A sup-panel in your outbuilding or a 20 amp MWBC?

When I rewired my lights (as part of my basement finishing project), I went over and flipped the switch to find no lights would come on. I was stumped. After a minute of smoke rolling out my ears, I realized I was flipping the wrong switch. PHEW! What a relief that was. And when I hooked up the breakers to the rest of the electrical, It did feel awesome that everything worked.
