Hi,

I need help figuring out how to wire an outdoor electrical circuit.
Hopefully someone can figure this out.

I have a junction box with two 14x2 wires going into it which are each
hooked up to a seperate outlet. Into the same junction box I have
another 14x2 wire which feeds power into the junction box. As well I
have a 14x3 wire which goes into the junction box and is hooked up to a
switch box with two light switches.

What I need to figure out is how to wire the junction box and light
switch box so that one light switch will turn one outlet on and the
other light switch will turn the second outlet on.

An help is appreciated.

12/2 into the junction box from the service panel.
12/3 to the light switches, mark the white neutral
with three black stripes at each end, that carries
power to the switch, the black and red carry power
back from the switch, one for each toggle. There
is no neutral at the switch.
Back at the junction box, the red and the black feed
the hot wire for their respective outlets.

Tie the nuetral from the supply line and each outlet
all together. (Three whites)

Tie all four grounds together.
