I will be installing the following:
~ One gfci receptacle in a half bath, one in the full bath
~ 4 keyless lights on 3-way switches in the attic, one receptacle
~ 6 keyless lights in the crawlspace, one receptacle for a pipe heat trace, one for general use
I plan to pull a 12/3 (20A mwb circuit) to the half bathroom gfci then a 12/2 from that to the full bath gfci, and run a 14/3 (15a mwbc) for the attic receptacle/lights, then a 14/2 from the attic to the crawlspace.
I know the crawlspace receptacle needs to be GFCI protected; do any of the lights or attic receptacle need it as well? The receptacles are general use and not for any equipment. Is a zip-tie an acceptable way of grouping the conductors of the MWBCs in the panel? Would a 2p breaker be better/worse than two 1p breakers with handle ties? Also, can I use 15A duplex GFCI receptacles in the bathrooms or do they have to be 20A? Lastly, do the crawlspace receptacles need to be WR?
