In Reply to: How about hardwiring Romex from the panel directly to a multiple-outlet box/conditioner? posted by clarkjohnsen on May 2, 2007 at 11:07:24:
...have a look at the book "The Complete Guide To Home Wiring", put out by Black and Decker tools. There's lots of great stuff there that they don't teach in EE school. They have some really good illustrations of different wiring configurations, including the dedicated circuit that maabx mentioned. Their example is a dedicated outlet for a microwave oven in a kitchen.When I get my house, I'm going to have a subpanel for the listening room. The idea is to run a high current line from the main service (main breaker panel) to the subpanel. Each outlet in the listening room will be a so-called "isolated ground" outlet, wired to the subpanel. That name is somewhat of a misnomer. It just means that each outlet has an individual ground wire back to the panel, without any daisy-chaining of grounds. So there will be a kind of "star grounding" arrangement, with the star being subpanel ground. The book I mentioned gives instructions on how to install and wire up a subpanel.
Regarding electrical code, I scrounged a PDF of it, but when I tried to read it my eyes glazed over. It's like trying to read a legal document.
