Dont Know Remodeling

If the electrical service to your home is adequate, but you need to add more circuits and breakers, you may be able to add a sub-panel in the basement where it’s handy. Actually, unless you’ve done this before—successfully—consider hiring an electrician to install a sub-panel for you. The sub-panel simply take some of the electrical service from the main or service panel and routes it to a central location where it can be split into new circuits.

From the main panel or sub-panel you can install a circuit breaker, run wiring to the fixture, and install the receptacle or fixture. These topics will be covered next.
