Hey Folks
yesterday I was checking the electrical panel and I found out that 15amp circle connect to 5 receptacles in the living room and 25 lights totally is 30 lights and receptacles, as my understanding in the Canadian Electrical Code the max is only 12 receptacles and lights.
note, all the lights are LED and every five pot lights under one switch. Do I need to count the switches or the lights because if it's a switch then it's 6 switches and 5 receptacles total is 11.
If it's not the switch then what is the solution! do I need to add 3 x 15 amp breakers in total and Do I need to open drywall to fix the issue?
the problem in the main floor so all the wiring in the attic and the panel in the basement. please I need your advice.
thank you for your time :smile
