In this video, I show how to wire a garage for electricity. I explain when I use 12/2 vs 14/2 wire for 20 amp or 15 amp circuits. I wire new outlets and switches for the garage from in this tutorial. The wiring basics I show here are the same wiring basics I used when I made a video on how to wire a house. This video covers start to finish from wiring outlets and 3 way switches to wiring the breakers in a panel. #electrical #electric #construction #diy
