Ok, so I need to run electricity into a spare room in my house... I checked my breaker box, I have two empty 15amp breakers... If i go out, buy 12g electrical wiring, turn the power off. Hook the positive wire to the breaker, the neg to the breaker box with the larger white cord going to it. And the ground to the green screws. Then run the electric through the support beams in the basement to my spare room. Then when it reaches the room can i hook those wires straight up to an electrical outlet i had installed but didnt hook electric up to?
By doing this is the electric hooked up right? or am i missing a step?
any advice would help... I'd rather do this myself, but do it right, and not die.... I will be checking the wires with a voltage meter to make sure everything is off...
