3-Way Switch Installation and Conduit Removal in Charlotte, NC
Touchstone Electric’s Charlotte branch completed a clean, code-compliant upgrade for Paul Kowalski Builders (PK Builders) in Charlotte, NC. Our crew removed exposed exterior conduit from a brick wall and installed a new 3-way switch inside the column labeled S1. This project was completed on July 31, 2026, by our Matthews-based team serving the greater Charlotte area.
Project Overview
PK Builders requested two focused tasks:
- Careful removal of exterior conduit from a brick facade to improve appearance and functionality.
- Installation of a new 3-way switch inside the S1 column for easier lighting control.
Our licensed electricians ensured all wiring methods and terminations followed current electrical code, delivering a neat finish that blends with the property’s design while restoring convenient lighting control.
What We Did
- Site assessment: Verified the existing wiring path, switch locations, and safe isolation before any work began.
- Conduit removal: Removed the exposed conduit on the brick wall with care to protect adjacent finishes.
- 3-way switch installation: Installed a new, code-compliant 3-way switch within the S1 column and completed all necessary terminations.
- Function testing: Tested the new switch operation and confirmed reliable, smooth switching performance.
- Cleanup: Left the work area tidy, with a clean, professional appearance.
The result is discreet, dependable lighting control with a streamlined exterior—no more visible conduit on the brick and a properly installed 3-way switch exactly where it’s needed.
Why a 3-Way Switch Is a Smart Choice
A 3-way switch lets you control the same light from two different locations, making it ideal for entries, columns, hallways, stairways, and other pass-through spaces. By positioning the new switch in the S1 column, the lighting becomes more intuitive for anyone entering or leaving the area—improving convenience and safety.
