I am having my basement done in a couple of weeks and will have a dedicated HT. The total basement will have three large rooms and we have four breakers that remain open on the main in the house. The contractor plans to use three: one breaker for each room and leave one open "just in case for down the road."
My question is whether I will regret having all my HT equipment on the same room circuit as the lights. Some forums have talked about having a "home run" to the outlet you plug all your equipment into. This supposedly decreases interference and stabilizes the load. While I do not think my equipment is extremely power hungry, I want to make sure I do it right upon construction. The power hogs will probably be my Denon 3802 and Samson 1000 with the SVS 20-39+ (coming soon).
Anyone with some elctrical insight? Should I use the last open breaker for my equipment outlet? My mechanical engineering degree is not doing me much good right about now! Thanks.
