    Hey guys - I just moved into a house with an unfinished basement. Having it finished out and starting from a blank slate. Will be asking a variety of questions, but would appreciate any advice you think important.

    Starting with electrical - any advice? I have heard 3 pins per 15 amp circuit in the past. How about a cut off system that protects the pins, but does not require me to unplug them all the time, and allows me to turn everything on at once?

    Search around, topic has been covered many times. The games only pull 1-2 amps so you could probably easily run 5-6 on 15 amp, 7-8 on 20 amp. I would not put in 15 amp breakers and instead Go with 20 amp.
