This page provides a "living document" of the Omni Commons electrical system. It is not necessarily completely accurate, though it strives to be, and is always important to get updated! Also see our power usage, floorplans, old breaker diagram, and cancelled panels.

In 2019 we added another circuit to this box to power lights & outlets in the secure storage closet above it. In the confusion, something may have been switched around. Liblens briefly lost power. Needs to be re-assessed and re-labeled.
