I was working on some wiring in a house in Westland today where everything was a total hack job. I was rewiring all the basement lights to their own circuit, and noticed that the kitchen had been remodeled by a bunch of hacks, and they only have one legal SABC. It's probably the original, no doubt. The other circuit powers all of the countertop receptacles, the garbage disposal, the gas range, and a set of recessed lights above the countertop. All on one 15A circuit! Not even 20A. The house is being sold (formerly a rental), and the owners need to get it up to par so it can be sold.
Have any of you ever seen work like this in a kitchen? This is why kitchen remodelers should not be allowed to do their own electrical work. I've actually been called to houses to fix screw-ups like this.
