How to correctly do dedicated lines for an apt?


Gentlemen
I know these cleanpower/dedicated line threads have been discussed before. I'm been totally convinced of the importance of having dedicated lines. That's why I'm taking the plunge myself and having it done in my place. The only difference is that I live in an 667 unit 31 story hi-rise and can only go so far.( Can't change the ground,can't isolate the power from the pole transformer etc. etc.). Here's what I believe covers most everything. I want to be sure I've covered all the bases before I bring in an electrician to do the work
1) On concensus #10 solid wire is the best to use(cyroed or not)
2) Put in as many outlets as you can.You can never have too many.
3) My standard 100 amp box is all used up; so just run a sub breaker box from it.
4) Clean all the breakers and mains and apply something like SST for conductivity.
5) Use high quality duplex receptacles (cyroed or not).
6) THIS IS THE ONE I DON'T UNDERSTAND Put all the new dedicated lines on the SAME PHASE.
7)Put in some 30 amp breakers for your high current items.e.g. Power amps
8) Run an isolated ground from each outlet back to the box DON'T UNDERSTAND THIS EITHER
Well, that's what I know. Appreciate any other suggestions to do this right

Thanks for any and all input

Same phase because of (slight, but very serious) danger of a ground fault turning a cable or component into a 220V death trip.
With two different phases being used the potential, say from your sub on one phase, to your preamp on another is, if a power fault develops, and the unit is wired with the ground on the wrong pin, 220Volts running anywhere it can go to meet up. That is through cables, etc.
Also, the 220V differential potential could damage your electronics even if it never kills you.
(I had a preamp go crazy and have power supply circuit problems that were never solved, and I am pretty certain it WAS because I was using two legs in two separate outlets.)
It probably will NEVER occur to you or your equipment, but why take the unneeded and foolish risk associated with using both phases in one system.
Everything you want can be done from one leg of the circuit.
Also, I use the dedicated airconditioner 20 amp single outlet circuit for my stereo. The (new energy efficient) airconditioner is on another lone 15 amp circuit all by it's self.
There are few amps that require more than a 5 (five) amp circuit breaker let alone a thirty amp one. Wow!

10 gauge is overkill. Unless the run is extreme in length.
