hi all -
i'm going to (well, at least would like to try) some electrical work in my new home. things like putting in some additional in-ceiling lights, tying the electrical line to the existing power somewhere, possibly running some new switches, etc.
i may also be punching some holes in the wall to run conduit, etc.
so, i would like to keep everything to code if possible. things like how high to mount the junction boxes, how to tie into existing wiring (i know i need a gang box in that location), what type of wire i need (cl3, special romex), etc.
so is there a website or some reference books that someone can recommend? i live in sacramento, ca -- if that makes any difference.
thanks!
