Can never be enough reminders with respect to safety in yer grow rooms. Nows the time when it'd be nice to know an electrician that could be trusted.....Worst part is, the majority of the house was extensively rewired less than 4 years ago.

Anyway ... hopefully by documenting this event in this Journal, it might give others a bit of a heads up.
I hear ya on that! When I traced my growroom's wiring, I went right out and bought a dedicated breaker box and wired my room for 2 - 15 amp circuits and cut it out of the old circuit. One runs just my air conditioner and fans, the other my lights. I wired with 12/2 so I can go to 20 amps if needed buy I working on building lower power lights.
I'll need to have it hired done but 2 dedicated 15amp circuits is what I figured I'd need as well.
