Reply to comment by nowhereman1223 in Recently finished remodeling my 1998 (very poorly built) first home. I hope the next homeowner gets a chuckle out of my electrical panel layout. by kar132435

I tried that. Still have no idea what #16 is. Ha

My next project (sometime down the road) is definitely cutting the main and rearranging this mess. Functionally, everything is fine, but I’ll get peace of mind knowing it’s at least organized.

Sometimes it’s good to break up circuits. It lets you run two large draw items in the same room at once. My garage has multiples and I’m thankful when I use my air compressor and shop vac at the same time to clean my car.

Same thing here.

Each time I replace a light switch, outlet, or light; I figure out what it is connected to, document it and make sure everything on that section is wired correctly.

2 years in and I almost have all the switches and outlets wired correctly. Then its the rearrange of the panel.

Then its the hire someone to add a sub panel for the outside outlets I don't have currently.
