I moved into a new house a few months ago, and I had a rather rude realization today that ALL of the outlets and light fixtures in the master bedroom, living room, family room, hallway, guest bathroom, and one of the other bedrooms are on the same 240v breaker. That's basically half the entire house.
Setting aside the fact that it's way too many rooms for just two circuits, why would whoever wired this use a single 240v 15a breaker in the panel instead of two 120v ones?
