indicating the lighting planned on this small house plan. Proper lighting and ambiance lighting really makes a difference in the feel of your home. You can never have too many outlets, you can only have not enough.

Electricians know the codes for your area and can help you in the planning and placement of all electrical outlets and switches. These can then be worked into your blueprint.
Most electricians will follow the blueprints to the letter. I've seen some of the old school electricians wire things a little differently. Most of the time, it's up to code, but if not, it will need to be done right. If you are going to hire the electrical wiring to be done, make sure to get an electrician that is up to date on modern codes.
