Some of my bricklayer's helper's are also licensed electricians.
So I'm getting a couple more bids before I pull the trigger on that. (beside, as soon as the bricklayer's leave, I have to finish the siding, so there's some time available)
Anyway, I have a good electrical diagram for wiring the studio detailing the lay-out of switches, lights, outlets, and other gang boxes as well as the circuit breakdown.
My monitors will be soffit mounted Event 20/20 BAS's and I have outlets planned for the inside of the soffit.
I thought it would be a good idea to be able to turn on and off those monitors, so there'll be a switch located in a gang box under the console to do that.
But, and here's the topic:
Could a wire of that gauge be connected to a smaller toggle switch type of switch? And how cool would it be to have a series of those mounted on a face plate thats mounted on a rack, that could control other electrical functions as well. Like say, turn on/off lights above the console, or dim them (i'm aware of the constraints and specs for dimming lights) or even being able to do that for other rooms, all, right at your fingertips, right the console.
It could be cool.
Or, I'm I just thinking too much here.....
