An electrician friend of mine is trying to convince me to install two separate 20-amp circuits for powering my layout and accessories. I think this seems a tad extreme (BTW, the guy hasn't had any trains of his own in over 40 years!). The layout in my previous home worked fine on the pre-existing outlets. But my new layout will have more track (~200 linear ft) and have DCC (Digitrax Chief). <br /> <br />Any reason why I can't just use my existing outlets here as well?
