I think this guy plays baseball, as he's mentioning Home Run. LOL. One extremely important Notice: The outlets on each side of the sink, MUST BE GFCI. So, I suggest running the 2 mandatory 20 Amp. circuits for counter receptacles to start at each side of the sink with a GFCI TR (Tamper Resistant) receptacle, and then feed off to the adjacent receptacle/s. The Electrical Code keeps changing, so, for peace of mind and safety and security, consult your local/municipality latest codes update. When in doubt, befriend an electrician or hire one :)) Any receptacle within 6 feet of the outer edge of a sink, MUST BE GFCI. Also, look into the possible requirement of Dual AFCI and GFCI receptacles. :/ TY and TC.
At 1:47 - You forgot the microwave (which can be on the same 20A circuit with the gas range below). And the disposal and refrigerator only require 15A circuits with 14-2 wire - not 20A. The microwave and dishwasher call for 20A, and the DW needs to be hard-wired as well (not an outlet).
Jeff new electrical code look it up on RUclips for this year 2021 they want dishwashers on a GFI with a plug yes something new according to National electrical code
If the dishwasher, garbage disposal and refrigerator are all on the same 20 amp circuit you never indicated where the GFI would go. I can only assume it would be the refrigerator since that would be the only outlet that might be easily accessible.
Like MM said it’s just plain wrong . Just like your other video you put the light switch behind the door. You obviously aren’t thinking things through or you are a qualified electrician. So before you post anymore videos that aren’t correct you should review them first or not post at all. You are going to cause someone to make an exspensive mistake with a very crucial part of a home.
Helpful electric plan overview. From a design perspective, I don't understand some of the lighting choices, having to switch on multiple light switches to light the while kitchen with overhead lighting. A light over the sink is really intended for additional task lighting, similarly to under cabinet lighting. Under cabinet lighting should be standard at this point for optimal functionality.
the outlets is wrong, the outlets next to each other are suppose to be on alternate circuits, so if someone is using 2 small appliances in one area of the kitchen they wont be plugged into the same circuit
Where I live the layout described would be totally wrong and against code. The man should state what area this job would be okay. Always consult your local electrical safety authority.
something I don't understand is that the 20 amp 12/2 home run for the appliances the fridge, the dishwasher, range, and garbage disposal are they on the same circuit for the home run 12/2 or is each appliance getting a direct home run of 12/2?
A home run means it comes directly from the panel on it's own circuit and individual breaker. So each appliance will have it's own circuit from the panel and have it's own breaker.
Each appliance gets it's own dedicated circuit, i.e., a "Home Run" from the receptacle straight to the Panel, or, from the Panel straight to the Receptacle...

You only use 14/2 for lighting circuits, you can use for general receptacles but it’s not recommended, vacuum cleaners pull 12 to 13 amps nowadays, so I recommend all receptacles on 20 amps
Hey man great video you helped me with my question lol but I’m gonna be having a island too do the outlets on the island need to be gcfi or just regular outlets? N can the outlets on the island get power from the lights?
so each appliances has individual breaker? then the 3 receptackes is 20A and another 3 is another 20A also? can we just put the the 6 receptacles in one 20A breaker?
the requirements usually state that each group of three is on one 20 amp breaker, because the idea is, if you are making cakes and run your coffee maker at the same time, then you do not blow the wire... also why you alternate the outlets, so hopefully the coffeemaker and the toaster are not on the same breaker. Microwaves are now required in many places to be on their own home run, or run back to the panel, just like the fridge, freezer, garbage disposal in some states, and any washers or dishwashers.
H Edward Rodriguez Mr Rodriguez, I wouldn't recommend that ever to anyone two heavier powered appliances sharing a single circuit just don't seem like a good idea
"12-2" means 12 gauge, two insulated current carrying wires, plus a bare ground. 12-2 wire usually has a black, white and bare ground wire. Sometimes the white is red instead for 220V circuits without neutral. In the latter case, the sheath is usually red too
My dishwasher is 8 amps, my gas range is 1.5 amps, my fridge is around 10 amps. Electric code is way overkill.

Please send it for me in an complete photo
I think the range actually uses 30 Amps with gage 10.
This for a gas range.
what about the switch of your GD outlet??
When you mean Homerun, you mean " Run back the 12/2 Wire back to the Panel" ??
Range plugs are 50 amp
Gas range 110 20 amp
Dual fuel 50 amp
He's talking about a gas range I guess
WRONG! lOOK AT YOUR RANGE THAT WILL ONLY WORK IF RANGE IS GAS... ALL APPLIANCES SHOULD BE DEDICATED!
@sparky12x wow that is a bit overbearing isn't it lol
If the dishwasher, garbage disposal and refrigerator are all on the same 20 amp circuit you never indicated where the GFI would go. I can only assume it would be the refrigerator since that would be the only outlet that might be easily accessible.

gracias amigo thans

M M that's a good idea but not code
You are referring to Split Plugs/Circuits which to my understanding isn't code anymore.
Where I live the layout described would be totally wrong and against code. The man should state what area this job would be okay. Always consult your local electrical safety authority.
Are the lights and switch on a seperate homerun?
good i like it practical
I didn't notice any comments from the OP
This information was very helpful for me! Thanks for share your knowledge!
Lot of thanks vvvvvv Great with practical thanks Sir
Love your videos and explanations. Really helpful. Thanks man!
something I don't understand is that the 20 amp 12/2 home run for the appliances the fridge, the dishwasher, range, and garbage disposal are they on the same circuit for the home run 12/2 or is each appliance getting a direct home run of 12/2?
A home run means it comes directly from the panel on it's own circuit and individual breaker. So each appliance will have it's own circuit from the panel and have it's own breaker.
no each one is its own circuit meaning a home run a breaker for each one amigo
Each appliance gets it's own dedicated circuit, i.e., a "Home Run" from the receptacle straight to the Panel, or, from the Panel straight to the Receptacle...
good help
Disposals only need a 15A home run, a 20A is unnecessary.
Exactly! Refrigerators, same thing.
@@Jeff-xy7fv dishwasher and disposal together 1 20 amp circuit
Microwave and vent hood together 1 20 amp circuit
Put refrigerator on 1 of the small appliance circuits
Split receptacles up evenly on counter top receptacles, you can put the dinning room on 1 of the small appliance circuits if they have a dinning room, you can put the nook on the other small appliance circuit
You will never have any problems circuiting the kitchen out in this manner
Electric cooktop 220 - 30 amp in most cases, some can be larger
Oven 220 - 40 amp, will serve a double oven or single, you do this incase you decide to change and do a double oven
Range is 220 - 50 amp if electric or dual fuel
110 - 20 amp if gas or gas cooktop, and can be put on the small appliance circuit.
You only use 14/2 for lighting circuits, you can use for general receptacles but it’s not recommended, vacuum cleaners pull 12 to 13 amps nowadays, so I recommend all receptacles on 20 amps
How do you go from 12 /2 to 14 /2. No good

What is homerun ?
I m a elctrision i want job have u jov
So all appliances are range or have to be 20 amps and a 12 gage .. can I use a 14 gage ? just wanted to check.. thank you for the Video.
for 10 amp you have to use 12 awg
What is 12-2 means
Thank you
He didn’t mention anything about a hood fan. Would that need a dedicated circuit as well?
No the range hood doesn't need a separate line
No outlet for range hood?
Could not find anything in nec code book in regards to separate circuits for GD and DW. Can these two appliances share a circuit?
H Edward Rodriguez Mr Rodriguez, I wouldn't recommend that ever to anyone two heavier powered appliances sharing a single circuit just don't seem like a good idea
of course you can ,who is using dishwasher while emptying dishes to disposer? and I'm thinking about commercial grade high wattage stuff
Yes its called branch out circiut article 210.52
12-3 wire is good for this
It's GFCI, not GFI. Other than that, thanks for the video
DZaK69 either is right.
nobody says calls it GFCI you nerd lol
what is the height for the counter top outlets/GFCI?
44" from the floor to the bottom of the box.
D
most ranges are not 20 amp...
John M gas
what is 12-2 sir
good question.. 12 is the gage size..
2pcs #12 wire
Hot and nuetral with ground on number 12 american wire gauge.
"12-2" means 12 gauge, two insulated current carrying wires, plus a bare ground. 12-2 wire usually has a black, white and bare ground wire. Sometimes the white is red instead for 220V circuits without neutral. In the latter case, the sheath is usually red too
What is about the loud music on the beginning of a videos I can't take it. The study showing that the genius people can not tolerate loud noise.
I think videos like this that are hazardous to unqualified home owners should be removed.
most ranges are 50A 12/2 is no good
Shut the fuck up idiot 40 amp is standard.
Maybe he means the micro
Your wrong!
