Lastly, I'd put in GFI _outlets_, and use regular breakers, where I
could. _IF_ something trips, it will kill that outlet only, and -not-
take out 'something else' that might be running on the same circuit.


Robert,

That sounds (to me) inconsistent with the "you one need one GFI outlet at
the beginning of a (circuit) run for each hot" advise that I've heard.
What am I missing?

More of a consideration in a 'more than one person' shop, but it's
along the same lines as why you don't put _anything_ else on the
'lighting' circuit -- localize the 'surprise factor' as much as
possible.
