Greetings!
I'm beginning the electrical in an unfinished basement. Currently all seven lights are run off one switch. How do I go about isolating each room for a separate switch?
Thanks!

That too vague for us to give you a detailed answer.
The basic principle is you bring power to each switch box and then you run cable from the switch to the lights for that switch. Some of the cables between the lights might able to be reused. But some of them for sure need to be removed so the light are separated into the groups you need.

Right, it all depends how your existing lights are wired up. What wiring do you see at the single switch itself?
