I have almost all my details ready, but it's looking like this will have to wait until tax time for the big expenses. I want to put up some drywall and insulate the ceiling before I wire, and just run the conduit and boxes on top of the drywall.

You are going to do what? Before you concrete the floor?

I think the order now is going to be drywall, paint, electrical (in conduit on top of the drywall), then concrete. Somewhere in the midst of this I need to put up a fence so the psychotic mutts can have a place to be themselves.
Here's some of what I'm after partswise:
16 fluorescent fixtures (new)
42 duplex outlets
13 double boxes
1 triple box
4 switches
1 WP switch
1 WP outlet/box/cover
17 single boxes
2 30amp 220v outlets
1 Single lamp outdoor light
1 mogul-base outdoor fixture (CFL in a mercury vapor housing, 65w vs 175w)
A fair bit of 12/2 and 10/3 cable
1", 3/4", and 1.5" conduit
I'm thinking 6/3 for the pole to box run, it'll be about 20'
and the 100 amp panel.

The 6/3 is only rated for 60amps. Need to go a little higher. Minimum #2.

Jared, You worry about the drawing, lights and panel. (Square D is prefered, since I have a majority of the breakers.) Dave and myself will worry about the rest.

Do us a favor and yourself, no rock till the wiring is done. I know its hard to wait, but it will save a ton of time.

Well Tom, I know you do work the way i do with the same clauses I have.... I do not do repair.. If a wall needs to be opened up, It shall be. And The owner has the task to close it.

Yes, Jared, Just trying to save the expense and time. I hate rock in a new open building with no wire. It's just like the contractor trying to save time by going backwards.

No a sales man will make you pick up the dime while they get the dollar. Greedy bass tards
