Whatever works for you but just remember not to put too many outlets

Does residential have limits on numbers of outlets on a circuit? I thought
that it didn't.

At any rate, those are good numbers to keep in mind.

In a shop, I think you don't want too many devices on the same run.
I think it goes without saying that you should be running 20 amp
circuits (12 gauge wire), doesn't it? Use 15 amp for the lighting.


I used 20 amp even for lighting. I love lots of light.
