Touchstone Electric’s Charlotte team, operating from our Matthews branch, recently completed a crawl space lighting, outlet, and wall switch installation for Crawl Space Brothers CLT in Charlotte, NC.

Date completed: June 27, 2025 | Technician: Chris Rogers
Project Overview
The goal was straightforward: add reliable illumination and a convenient control point so crews and homeowners can move through the crawl space safely. Our electrician assessed the access point, existing wiring, and clearances, then installed new lighting along with a dedicated outlet and a wall switch, all tied into a properly protected circuit per local code requirements.
- Crawl space lighting: Installed to improve line-of-sight for inspections, repairs, and routine maintenance.
- Outlet installation: Added a convenient power source for tools, pumps, and testing equipment.
- Wall switch: Provided easy on/off control for safe entry and exit.
- Code-compliant wiring: Secure routing, supported cabling, and thorough testing for safe operation.
Before wrapping up, our technician verified proper operation of the light, outlet, and switch, checked overcurrent protection and polarity, and ensured the installation met local inspection standards for Charlotte.
Results for the Property
