We had an electrician do our basement with our help and wiring diagram. We had planned on putting in lights on the steps down to the basement and on the same circuit also added two extra plugins - one in the crawl space and the other in the furnace room. The switch shares the same plate as the ceiling lights. So last week had a holy crap moment when the central vac decided not to work. After a bit of head scratching I figured "someone" had flicked the forgotten unused switch plus the vac was plugged into the respective socket... hence power got turned off. So yeah... even when doing ones own basement it's easy to forget exactly how something is set up!
