Planning basement wiring
Before framing is closed in, decide where the television, desk, bar and exercise equipment will go, because that sets the outlet and lighting plan. Basements also need thought about moisture. We keep sump and dehumidifier circuits separate, use GFCI protection where required and mount boxes clear of slab-level dampness. In Byron Center, finished basement work needs a permit and a rough-in inspection before walls are covered.
