help wiring some outlets
Hello everyone I am doing a little project in my basement. I wanted to install 9 outlets on my wall. I ran all the conduit and pulled the wire. I want the nine outlets to be on six different circuits. I drew this diagram outlets 1,2 will be on the same circut. 4 will be alone on a circuit. 3 and 6 will be together, outlet 5 will be alone and 9 will be alone. Outlet 7,8 will be together. My question is how do I connect 8,7 together

The connection will be the same as between any other two receptacles on a circuit.
I hope the conduit is large enough and you considered derating issues.

All the grounds are required to be spliced together. You could have used one ground for all the circuits.

Or pull out unneeded grounds an use one. That would mean at each box probably 4* wires, ground in, ground out, pigtail to device, pigtail to box if metal.
*Or 5 wires if one in two out such as some top boxes.
