I am remodeling my basement,
To start, I have a 100 amp service box with 14 spaces. Two are the main, 10 are used for the upstairs, and 1 is used for the basement lights. That leaves 1 open for the oulets in the basement. Can I use that 1 to operate 11 outlets in the basement? Or do I have to up-grade to a 16 space service box? There will be 4 outlets that will not be used the same time as the others. Does that make a difference?
Also, there is 1 outlet that will have two gfci outlets on them.
If possible, what size breaker should I use?
Thanks: DD..
