    Outlets and Lights on one circuit
    Ok, so we have a small electric project we are running. We will have 1 electric outlet and then two light fixtures. All of this is in an attic space. The outlets will be used on a regular basis (always on) for a projector and an electric screen. (Both of these are very low in draw) From the outlet, I plan to rcontinue the run to two light sockets (On a switch) just to have overhead lighting if we need to be in the attic to work on anything such as air vents, projector or screen mounts, etc... I plan to run this on 12-2 wire and a 20A circuit. The lights will only be on in very limited sitiuations. Anyone see any issues? (I now that is a loaded question, but I had to ask before I finish the wiring.) We have pulled in the 12-2 already into the panel and are going to hopefully add the new breaker tomorrow and install the outlets and light sockets.

    Thanks
    Chris

    Sounds like a good plan. Be careful in the panel.
