- My electrician, my wife, and I walked around the house indicating where
- we wanted light switches, light fixtures, outlets, telephone, and TV hookups.
- Then he started working out circuits and where they would be on the power
- panel. He mentioned that he had to "balance" the panel.
-
- What does "balancing" a power panel mean? Why is it necessary? How
- is it typically accomplished? Yes, I know I can ask my electrician,
- but the Net often has many gems of wisdom which I would not get from
- a non-talkative tradesman. Thx.
