Here's a question to the electricians. Currently I'm running 2 1000w Metal halides with the convertible ballasts for HPS. This setup is on a large closet in the garage. I had to run one one extension cord for a short distance into another circuit because I quickly found out that 1 circuit couldn't handle it.
Now I want to run 3, preferably 4 lights in a bedroom instead of in that closet. The bedroom circuit is 15 amps, and the circuit actually goes to 2 bedrooms adjacent to each other, so I can't just run a cord underneath the house and into the other room. Above the hallway ceiling in the attic is an electrical circuit that goes to the 2 hallway lights and 2 small bathrooms. Can I tie an outlet into that for the second light?
I'm gonna go back up there and hopefully find the circuit that goes to the master bedroom. If that is easily accessible, hopefully above the hallway in the attic, I'd like to put an outlet into that also for a 3rd light. Further research required for the 4th light.
My breaker box does not have any vacant spaces. Thanks for your input.
