How do I do lighting??

Just kidding.

I have my first lighting job coming up tomorrow. I've gathered all my parts including 2-300watt vista trannys, 5-20w Unique path lights, and 3-35w unique bullet/spot lights.

A couple questions for the pros:

1. Should I be worrying about overloading if I'm using hubs w/ home runs of less than 80 ft of 12 guage wire?? Each tranny will have two runs of 60-80ft of 12guage wire connected to a hub w/ 20-75watts of fixtures to power.

2. Is a volt meter necessary??

3. How do you determine which tap to use for each run?? and can you use the same taps for each run??
