I'll be starting the wiring on my new 22X16X10 shop soon. I've done a good bit of research here and elsewhere, and Ive got some figured out already. I'll be using 100+ lumen per Sq foot using T5's for light.

There will be several 20 recepticals inside and out. At least one 30 amp 220v, maybe more. Other recepticals in areas where I may add a swamp cooler or A/C unit or heater (gas), garage door opener, and two high mounted outside for future patio lighting.

I was curious if I'm missing anything from the obvious, or if anyone has other suggestions based on past experience?

Thanks,
Rock

I was remiss, didn't think I would need it, but will be adding it in the next few decent weather days...

It will be a "box" that looks like an electrical outlet, that has the same vinyl block as an outlet/lamp - but will be used for housing an RF coupling to let me use my ham radio antenna and to test them, as well as a pass through for the solar panel in the yard to charge a battery bank in the garage to run my radios.

Other than that "forgot" your list is better than mine. Best of luck, it sounds like a great one.
