I was able to nearly complete the installation of a new electric receptacle in my basement, opposite the circut breaker box. The part that tripped me up was actually pretty simple. I bought the wrong kind of circuit breaker. If you can get the right stuff, it is not rocket science........in the basement.
Big but.....if you are running electrical wires up into your walls, I would caution you to consider the possible drawbacks. You could get it wrong and do some damage and if your insurance company finds out you did it yourself, you probably would not be entitled to payment.
So, if you are confident and reasonably smart (I am guessing yes to both), you surely can do it. The question should really be whether or not you are comfortable with the risk.
Good luck!
