This is my first post, so be gentile. We recently bought a old hotel. It was built in 1897 and was a sportsman’s hotel. Rumor is Teddy Roosevelt stayed here. The ground floor was remodeled in the early 70’s. The second story is untouched. So I have a blank slate. Attic above is tall and wide open. Plan on feeding down all electric from there. Plaster walls And ceilings on second level fixable so I don’t want to disturb. House has 200 amp service. I want to install a 60 amp sub panel either in the closet that contains the staircase to attic or the attic itself. NM cable is allowed in my county. The second level is 2240 Sq ft. 11 bedrooms and a bathroom. Is 60 amps enough? Can I run 6-3 NM to feed it? If the NM is ran through the attic is it ok if not enclosed? Once this discussion gets rolling I’m sure I’ll have more questions. I contacted my building inspector today and told him I want to install sub and electric up there myself. He said fine just bring 50$ for the permit. Lol

Hi everybody I have a garage where there are 8 ceiling mounted lights; they were initially designed such that 4 of them would be turned on with a switch close to the entry door and the other 4 would be turned on with a second switch on an opposite wall. Ideally I would like either switch to turn on all the lights, or at least have one switch that can turn all of them on and the other can stay as is. If breaking through sheetrock and fishing lines across the room (it's not that easy 24 x 24 garage and the locations are almost opposite corners) is there any current technology that can help me do this? I had seen remote switches which would have the switch in one location and the light would turn on in another location but it appeared these are for new and maybe simpler setups. What I would need is a 'transmitter' on my switch that when turned on, would send a signal to the opposite side switch (where a 'receiver' would be) and that switch would turn on. I assume if the receiver is an internal switch it could just be wired in parallel to the second switch so as to have first switch turn all the lights on but second switch could also turn a subset of them on? Does anything like this exist? Thank you!
