Dedicated power lines-getting started


Any advice please on the right questions to ask my local electrical contractor re: dedicated power lines.
I'm very interested in getting this done but I'm obviously"electrically challenged" when it comes to this stuff.
Also any feedback on estimated cost, time involved, material etc. would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I second discos suggestion. That is exactly what I used and could not be happier with the results.

Greh you really need to input a query to the forum search engine:
"dedicated line" ,, "dedicated circuit"
You'll find more information there than you know what to do with.
There are already so many posts on this subject that many of us don't even respond to this question anymore
Bob's right. Except that I'd like to add that a better cable than Romex IS an improvement. I use the 12AWG all-Teflon, shielded Belden 83802, and even twist a pair to make a 9AWG for huge amps.
Simple stuff: run at least two lines, so that you can keep digital away from analog. Use 20amp duplexes with strong contacts. The Pass&Seymour, Bubbell and Cooper spec grades are nearly identical in triple-wipe thick brass contacts and back-wire construction. I use all three. Cheap and good.
I also made heavy cast-aluminum 4 outlet floating junction boxes to terminate my 3 lines. RSVP for specific details and prices. You needn't spend lots of money here, but you do want to do some basic things correctly the FIRST time!
Good Morning Everyone

Thanks for your feedback.
I'll do a search and dive in from there.
Subaruguru, thanks for your info.
I'll be following up with you in a few weeks.
Thanks Again!

I do not think the electrical codes in any state allow the use of stranded conductors in the wall from the panel to the receptacles. You should ask your electrician about residential codes before buying wire.
