I am building a new house and I am trying to prewire as much as possible. If price was not an object what would you pre-wire?

​

Currently, I have my house being set up for Lutron RA2 lights

Putting 18/2 for speakers in each rooms

One cat5e by each room for a tablet/intercom

Cat5e for cameras

22/2 for Door/window contacts by all exterior doors and windows

smurftube by every room (where the intercom is for future growth).

18/2 by windows where I may want power shades.

​

What else am I missing?

​

Thank you

    Low voltage LED floor washers in all baseboard wired to photocell to switch on when lights are off, on a UPS.

    SurgeEX whole house non-destructable surge protection.

    Install 6 to 8, 8-foot, copper-clad grounding rods to reduce grounding circuit impedance to a minimum. It makes electrocution far less possible and it makes audio gear really quiet and happy.

    Run two, twenty-amp circuits for each audio and theater rooms for 40 amps, total.

    Double the number of outlets above kitchen counters.

    Double the number of outlets for bathroom counters.

    Run CAT7 2.5-10GB ethernet cable for ALL WIRED CONNECTIONS BY ROOM TVs and media/theater/audio locations. 2.5GB ethernet WILL BE THE STANDARD SPEED. 2.5GB switch prices and 2.5GB ethernet now standard on almost all computers for sale in 2024, MAC and PC.
