Time for dedicated outlets!


I would like some advice on what exactly to tell my electrician to be sure I get what I need. Is just saying that I want two separate dedicated lines to the listening room sufficient or are there other key fraises that should be included in my description of the work I would like done?

Here's a thought - if you have the space, consider a sub-panel adjacent to your rack depending on where the equipment is located from an aesthetic stand-point.

I added a dedicated 60amp sub-panel using 6-gauge in its own conduit from the main panel. That opens up the option of 240 volt power conditioners at the rack which is nice and very short runs from the panel to the outlets.

I grounded the sub-panel separate from the main panel using a grounding plate buried outside connected with 6-gauge grounding wire. Good fun.
That's a violation of the NEC

I'm assuming NEC is an American standard @cleeds ?
